The security failures surrounding the assassination attempt against former President Trump will be in the spotlight again on Tuesday when a pair of officials appear before a Senate panel.
Ronald Rowe, the new acting director of the Secret Service, and FBI Deputy Director Paul Abbate are set to appear before the Senate Judiciary and the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs committees.
Rowe took the helm of the Secret Service after its former director, Kimberly Cheatle, resigned following a dismal appearance before a House committee also probing the shooting, which took place July 13 at a rally in Butler, Pa.
Senators on both sides of the aisle said they would press for new information on what Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.), a member of both panels, labeled a “litany of gaps and failures.”
