May 28 (UPI) -- It has been four months since President Donald Trump pardoned more than 1,500 people who were involved in the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Some of those pardoned have found opportunity in the political realm while states and local jurisdictions are considering whether to ban them from working in the government.
In Florida, Jake Lang is running for the Senate seat vacated by U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Lang was charged for assaulting officers, among other charges related to entering the Capitol and interfering with the certification of the election.
According to the Federal Elections Commission, Lang's campaign has raised more than $28,000.
Ryan Kelley, a former Michigan gubernatorial candidate, ran for the office after participating in the Capitol riot.
