One Year After Deadly Jan 6 Attack, Amanda Adkins Remains Silent

Adkins accepts money from insurrectionist sympathizers while dodging questions on horrific attack 

It’s been one year since a far-right mob incited by President Trump stormed the U.S. Capitol, leaving five Americans dead and hundreds more injured – including members of law enforcement – and threatening the very fabric of our democracy.

And yet, Amanda Adkins has remained silent on the horrific events of January 6, refusing to condemn the insurrection and the Republican leaders who incited it. 

Despite her silence, Adkins has gladly accepted over $21k from Republicans who voted against certifying the free and fair election of President Biden and who share blame for the deadly January 6 attack.

DCCC Spokesperson Johanna Warshaw
“Kansans deserve to know whether or not Amanda Adkins condemns one of the darkest days in our democracy’s history that left five dead and hundreds more injured, including members of law enforcement. But her silence in the year since this deadly attack speaks volumes.”
