Mike Pence would give “due consideration” to testify before the House Jan. 6 committee if he were invited, the former vice president said at a Wednesday event.

“If there [were] an invitation to participate, I would consider it,” Pence said at an event at St. Anselm College in New Hampshire on Aug. 17. “But you’ve heard me mention the Constitution a few times this morning. Under the Constitution, we have three co-equal branches of government. Any invitation to be directed to me, I would have to reflect on the unique role I was serving in as vice president.”
