But instead, It was his newest version of 'Stand Back and Stand By'." In her closing statement, she said, "This is not, as it may appear, a story of inaction in a time of crisis, but instead it was the final action of Donald Trump's own plan to assert the will of the American people and remain in power. Not until it was clear that his effort to violently disrupt or delay the counting of the election results had failed did he send his message—a message to his supporters in which he commiserated with their pain and he told them affectionately to go home."<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.npr.org/2022/07/22/1112138665/jan-6-committee-hearing-transcript | title=Here's every word from the 8th Jan. 6 committee on its investigation | website=NPR | date=July 22, 2022 }}</ref>

====Corporate donations====
In her 2018 campaign, Luria pledged not to accept donations from [[political action committee]]s (PACs). She was consequently endorsed by [[End Citizens United]], a group that seeks to reform campaign finance laws and reduce the role of corporate money in politics. In 2020, Luria accepted $34,000 in corporate PAC contributions from the PACs of a tobacco company and defense contractors, among others.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Ackley |first1=Kate |title=Elaine Luria pays off campaign debt using corporate PAC money she said she'd reject |url=https://www.rollcall.com/2021/02/01/elaine-luria-pays-off-campaign-debt-using-corporate-pac-money-she-said-shed-reject/ |access-date=17 February 2021 |work=Roll Call |date=February 1, 2021 |language=en}}</ref> [[PolitiFact]] rated Luria's decision to accept corporate PAC funding a "Full Flop."

-On July 21, 2022, Luria co-led the committee's eighth [[Public hearings of the United States House Select Committee on the January 6 Attack|public hearing]] with Representative [[Adam Kinzinger]]. The hearing's focus was Trump's inaction during the 187 minutes from the end of his speech to his Rose Garden speech, where he told the rioters, "We love you, you're very special". Luria introduced the full video of both speeches.<ref>https://www.c-span.org/video/?c5024760/rep-luria-shows-video-pres-trump-recording-jan-6th-rose-garden-message {{Bare URL inline|date=August 2022}}</ref> She also showed outtakes from Trump's January 7, 2021, statement titled "Remarks on National Healing".<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eB-b6gLJFmw | title=Trump's outtakes from Jan. 7 speech shown by committee | website=[[YouTube]] }}</ref> Luria said of these remarks that this "was not the message of condemnation and just punishment for those who broke the law that we expect from a president whose oath and duty is to ensure the laws are faithfully executed. But instead, It was his newest version of 'Stand Back and Stand By'." In her closing statement, she said, "This is not, as it may appear, a story of inaction in a time of crisis, but instead it was the final action of Donald Trump's own plan to assert the will of the American people and remain in power.
