Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) has unexpectedly emerged as the most reasonable of all Democratic senators, as he is the only one to meet with President Donald Trump prior to the inauguration and has signaled his willingness to work with Republicans legislatively on areas of common ground.

One area where Fetterman is not aligned with Trump or the GOP is the sweeping clemency for all of the Jan. 6 Capitol rioters, however, as the senator just signed on to a proposed resolution condemning that Day One act by the new president, the Independent reported.

Notably, though, the condemnation doesn't necessarily apply to all of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot-related pardons and commutations from Trump, the majority of which were for individuals convicted of nonviolent misdemeanors, and instead appears limited only to the clemency granted for those who engaged in violence against law enforcement officers at the Capitol building in 2021.

Fetterman belatedly joins the resolution condemning some Jan. 6 clemency

On President Trump's first day in office, he signed an executive order granting full pardons or sentence commutations to the roughly 1,500 people who'd been prosecuted and/or convicted of various offenses related to the Jan. 6 Capitol riot of 2021, and at the same time ordered the dismissal of any pending prosecutions that hadn't yet been settled.

Trump said at the time, "This proclamation ends a grave national injustice that has been perpetrated upon the American people over the last four years and begins a process of national reconciliation."

Not everyone agrees with that assessment or is ready to move on, as evidenced by a one-page resolution introduced on Monday by Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA), which simply states "That the Senate disapproves of any pardons for individuals who were found guilty of assaulting Capitol Police officers."

In a statement shared on social media, Murray wrote, "It shouldn't be too much to ask for senators to oppose unconditional pardons for people found guilty of assaulting Capitol Police officers. I'm introducing a simple, one-line resolution condemning these pardons & will try to pass it on the Senate floor this week."

The Independent noted that Sen. Fetterman was not initially listed among Democratic supporters of the resolution, but his office eventually confirmed on Monday that he had finally joined with his 44 other Democratic colleagues and the two left-leaning "independent" senators who typically caucus alongside the Democrats.

Fetterman already revealed his disapproval of Jan. 6 pardons

Sen. Fetterman signing on in support of Sen. Murray's resolution is little more than an expected formality, as he'd already made it clear that he wasn't a fan of President Trump's broad clemency for all of the Jan. 6 defendants, violent and nonviolent alike.

ABC News caught up with Fetterman a couple of days after the inauguration and asked the Pennsylvania senator for his take on some of Trump's Day One actions, including the Jan. 6 pardons and commutations.

"Yeah, there were a lot of those pardons that day that I don't agree with any more than some of the pardons that President Biden dropped that I didn't agree with those as well, too," the Pennsylvania senator replied.

"I actually agreed on a lot of the pardons that I've signed on as lieutenant governor. I believe in second chances. Some people are very deserving of a second chance and get a pardon," he continued. "And there's some that I don't agree that do that. So I don't agree with, I don't agree with them. Many of those that I didn't agree with the president as well, too."

This doesn't really matter in the big picture

Sen. Fetterman's joining of the proposed resolution to condemn President Trump's clemency for violent Jan. 6 rioters, while perhaps disappointing to those who view Fetterman as an emerging potential ally in the Senate for the president, is nonetheless of little consequence in the big scheme of things.

Presidential pardons are irreversible, per prior Supreme Court rulings, meaning the resolution will have zero impact aside from expressing disapproval, and Fetterman made it clear to ABC News and other media outlets that, apart from areas of serious disagreement, he remains ready and willing to work with Trump and Senate Republicans to find issues affecting the country where there is some agreement on possible legislative solutions.
