Jamie Raskin after saying the January 6 committee does not engage in partisan politics during a House Judiciary Committee markup Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>The committee was debating a bill that would send push notifications to cell phones when an active shooter was near their location and Republicans were offering amendments to the bill. The bill is titled the Active Shooter Alert Act of 2022. Raskin then went off, saying Republicans are politicizing the Judiciary Committee\u2019s work. Raskin then said he\u2019s on a real committee that never politicizes things and does real work, referring to the January 6 committee, where he serves as a member.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt doesn\u2019t have to be like this because I actually serve on a bipartisan committee that gets things done. And that is not obsessed with partisan polemics and invective and denunciation and combat. And sees every piece of legislation is an opportunity to just club the other side. And that is the January 6th select committee,\u201d Raskin said before Republicans can be heard laughing.<\/p>\n<p>Raskin then responded to the laughter by Republicans on the committee by saying: \u201cWell, I appreciate the laughter of my colleagues because some people have accused us of being partisan because all of our witnesses are Republicans. You might not have noticed that, but then you might not be allowed to watch the hearings and you can see attorney general Barr there, you can see Mr. Stepien, who\u2019s Donald Trump\u2019s campaign manager and so on.\u201d <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2021\/02\/27\/sources-nancy-pelosi-sergeant-at-arms-paul-irving-national-guard-capitol-riot\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">(RELATED: Sources: \u2018Conversations\u2019 Pelosi Had With Sgt At Arms About National Guard Presence Factored Into \u2018Blender Of Decision Making\u2019 That Led Up To Riot)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>WATCH:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut the truth of the matter is that this committee is a bipartisan committee. You perhaps would laugh at your Republican colleagues. I wouldn\u2019t laugh at Liz Cheney who was elected as the chair of the House Republican conference and was the number three member of the conference. I wouldn\u2019t laugh at Adam Kinzinger who\u2019s a member of the national guard reserve and a distinguished member of the House of Representatives, but in any event, you\u2019re entitled to your laughter,\u201d Raskin added.\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2022\/06\/06\/jamie-raskin-blow-up-electoral-college-jan-6-committee\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">(RELATED: REPORT: Jamie Raskin Wants To Use The Jan. 6 Committee To Blow Up The Electoral College)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot <a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2022\/06\/14\/january-6-committee-postpones-hearing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">postponed<\/a> its hearing Wednesday due to \u201ctechnical issues,\u201d Democratic California Rep.
