Democratic lawmakers with the House Overside Committee sent a letter Friday to the U.S. Army requesting a report into an altercation earlier this week involving an Arlington National Cemetery employee and Trump staff who brought campaign photographers to the cemetery.
In the letter, the committee's ranking member, Democratic Rep. Jamie Raskin of Maryland, wrote to Army Secretary Christine Wormuth that he was "hopeful you can provide the Committee with a full account" of Monday's incident.
Former President Donald Trump visited the cemetery to take part in a wreath-laying ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier to commemorate three years since the 2021 Kabul suicide bombing that killed 13 service members during the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan.
