The Honorable Deb Haaland


Secretary
Department of the Interior
1849 C Street, NW
Washington, DC 20240

Dear Secretary Haaland,

You are receiving this letter because the House of Representatives Select Committee to
Investigate the events of January 6th may have sent you a request for information. The House
Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy appointed me to serve as the Ranking Member of the Select
Committee. Yet, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi refused to allow me to fulfill my duties as
Ranking Member.

Pursuant to the rules of the House of Representatives, the minority party in Congress
retains rights to the same information that is provided to the majority party. For those reasons, I
ask that you provide me any information that is submitted to the Select Committee. Additionally,
please include me on any update or briefing that you provide. If you have questions, please do
not hesitate to contact my staff at (202) 225-4436.

Sincerely,

Jim Banks
Ranking Member
