The nine members of a House of Representatives task force toured the Butler Farm Show grounds and met with local law enforcement officials, aiming to provide a nonpartisan account of the assassination attempt.
Several members expressed astonishment at the proximity - about 430 feet - between the rooftop where 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks took aim and the podium from which Trump was speaking.
Rep. Mike Kelly noted that experiencing the site in person provided clarity about the location of the shooting during the rally, emphasizing the importance of the investigation.
The task force has subpoena authority and will oversee all House committee investigations into the assassination attempt and the security lapses that allowed it to occur.
