(HOI) - After being selected for the January 6 committee, Central Illinois Congressman Rodney Davis will not be a part of it.
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy pulled all five of his Republican picks for the committee to investigate the U.S. Capitol attacks after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi rejected two of his picks, Reps. Jim Jordan of Ohio and Jim Banks of Indiana.
Illinois Rep. Rodney Davis was one of the Republican picks.
Bradley University Executive Director of the Institute for Principled Leadership Brad McMillan said he anticipated this committee and its members to be a contentious issue because of opposing views.
"Unfortunately because of the makeup of the committee, it could get controversial," McMillan said. "I hope it's a thought, deliberative, independent and fair process and people respect each other. it's okay to have different views, but you can do it in a way that treats people respectfully."
Rep. Liz Cheney of Wyoming is the only Republican left on the committee. She was selected by Speaker Pelosi.
