On Sunday, Freshman Rep. Sara Jacobs told CNN’s Brian Stelter that the United States needs a “truth commission” to not only address the “racial injustice and white supremacy of our past, but to hold Trump’s voters accountable if Democrats believe that they have incited violence.

“You also said in an interview with the 19th news website this week that the country needs a truth commission. What exactly would a truth commission be?,” Stelter asked.

“Because we haven’t really done the reckoning with the racial injustice and white supremacy of our past that we need to do. So a truth commission, a lot of people will think of South Africa. We have used them in countries around the world. Basically what it is is it’s communities all the way up to The National level having conversations about both the gory and the glory of our history and what happened both throughout the history of our country and leading up to and on January 6th so that we can come to a common narrative, moving forward of what we want our country to be.”

“Do you think the House and Senate leadership have the stomach for that?,” Stelter responded.

“I think so. Look, we all were victims of this attack in addition to being the lawmakers of this country. I know for a lot of this, this is very personal,” she replied.
