. I'm actually not in politics. What is a Dear Colleague Letter?
The Witness. A Dear Colleague Letter is when a Member of Congress is lobbying for legislation or a legislative fix or action by the executive or judicial branch, and they write to their colleagues. And they say, "Dear Colleague, I want you to support this. These are the good reasons why."
And it was widely reported that Representative Brooks started a Dear Colleague Letter around election integrity. And when we caught wind of that, I knew that, like, we need to talk to him team, because we can be helpful in lobbying Members of Congress because a lot of Americans want to participate in the legislative process.
. Thank you.

Q Did you work with Congressman Brooks' staff or Congressman Brooks himself in planning January 6th?
A In planning January 6th?
Q Uh-huh.
A The word "planning" to me as an event planner, you know, means like logistics or fundraising and stuff like that.
Q I'll rephrase it then. In the leadup to January 6th, did you speak to Congressman Brooks' staff or Congressman Brooks himself?
A I believe I spoke to him. I don't think we talked about—well, we had to obviously ask his staff if he was available to speak. And we talked, you know, we talked about election integrity. Yeah.
Q But when you say "we," as it you?
A It was me. They had, I think, two staffers on their end on a call.
Q Who were the staffers?
