The House of Representatives is kicking off its formal probe into the attempted assassination of former President Trump on Monday.
The bipartisan Trump shooting task force sent a pair of letters announcing its investigation will now supersede several other ongoing House investigations into the matter, and asking for all information sent to those committees about the July 13 shooting so far.
One letter was sent to Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and Acting U.S. Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe – the other was addressed to Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray.
Lawmakers are seeking staff-level briefings from each agency and department, to be scheduled by Aug. 16 – a signal that the task force is serious about its pledge for a short investigatory timeline.

Both Kelly and Crow have stressed that the investigation must be apolitical.
Crow, a former Army Ranger, told Fox News Digital earlier this month that he and Kelly were discussing a possible trip to the Pennsylvania rally site where the shooting took place. Kelly, who was at the rally in Butler, represents the surrounding district.
“Chairman Kelly and I have discussed that, and we do think that would be an important thing to do if we have the support to do it,” Crow said.
