Congressman Higgins issues statement after heated exchange in Oversight Committee hearing

Lake Charles, LA (KPLC) - Congressman Clay Higgins has issued a statement after a heated argument with New York attorney Raya Salter at a House Oversight Committee hearing went viral last week.

“When radicals show up in front of my Committee with an attitude talking anti-American trash, they can expect to get handled. I really don’t care if I hurt anybody’s feelings while I’m fighting to preserve our Republic,” Higgins said after the hearing. “Leftist activists may run over other elected officials, but they’re not running over me.”
