Summary

During a hearing, Republican U.S. Rep. Tom Tiffany questioned Attorney General Merrick Garland about the younger participation in a World Naked Bike Ride event in Madison, Wisconsin, voicing concern that the 10-year-old girl was exposed to the event. Despite their requests for investigation, neither local authorities nor the federal Department of Justice had taken action, leading Tiffany and Republican U.S. Rep. Scott Fitzgerald to express frustration at the lack of response.
