FAIRFIELD — Fairfield Police Chief Deanna Cantrell was the guest speaker Wednesday at the Solano County Peace Officers Memorial Service and honored the 20 who have died in the line of duty since 1892. But she also turned to her colleagues in uniform lined on Union Avenue from myriad local agencies, to honor their commitment and time as well. “Many people take what we do for granted. Not today, not by us,”
Solano County Sheriff Deputies salute as the National Anthem is played, Wednesday. Cantrell said. “We know what it is to don the badge. You are courageous. I’m grateful to serve the community with you. Our cause is
noble. We serve with love, justice and with fundamental fairness.” It was the 33rd time the community and area law enforcement gathered at the Memorial Wall of Honor to remember the fallen. The names of each were read by Steve Mortensen with a moment of silence and the release of white doves. Many family members at the end of the service shared flowers and remembrances at their loved ones’ plaques. “These officers will always hold a place in our heart and soul,” See Memorial, Page A8
WASHINGTON — The House committee scrutinizing the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol has subpoenaed House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., and four other prominent conservative representatives after they refused to voluntarily comply with its requests for information. In an all but unprecedented move to subpoena sitting members of Congress, the committee, which is expected to begin public hearings next month, is seeking to compel the testimony of McCarthy and Reps. Scott Perry of Pennsylvania, Jim Jordan of Ohio, Andy Biggs of Arizona and Mo Brooks of Alabama. All four, who are some of former President Donald Trump’s biggest backers in Congress, had been asked in letters to speak with the committee and refused. “Unfortunately, you declined voluntary cooperation, and we are left with no choice but to issue you this subpoena,” state the letters to the representatives informing them of the subpoenas. The committee has debated privately for months about whether to subpoena representatives who refuse to cooperate and whether it wanted to set such a precedent — particularly given time constraints, the chance of a lengthy legal battle and the strong chance that Republicans could regain control of the House after the midterm elections.
