January 6th Truth and Transparency Act

Reports on January 6 pardons

This bill would require the Director of the Congressional Research Service to prepare public reports about people pardoned under Presidential Proclamation 10887 (January 20, 2025). The first report would be due not later than 60 days after enactment. After that, reports would be due every 180 days. Each report would list every person pardoned, given a commutation, or whose pending indictment was dismissed under the Proclamation. For each person, the report would say whether they were arrested, charged, or convicted of a federal, state, or local crime from January 20, 2025 to the report date, and would describe each offense. Each report would also say whether the person was involved in a law enforcement encounter that involved use of force by an officer. The Director could include other information the Director determines appropriate. Reports would be submitted to the House Committee on House Administration, the Senate Committee on Rules and Administration, and the House and Senate Appropriations Committees, and would be posted on the Library of Congress website.
