Nearly a month after Senate Republicans blocked a move to vote on an outside commission to probe the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said she'll move forward with plans to launch a select committee to take over the probe.
Pelosi shared the news in a press conference on Thursday at which she blasted Republicans for preventing a bipartisan commission from moving forward.
"This morning, with great solemnity and sadness, I am announcing that the House will be establishing a select committee on the January 6 insurrection," Pelosi said. "[It] was one of the darkest days in our nation's history... It is imperative that we establish the truth of that day and ensure that an attack of that kind cannot happen and that we root out the causes of it all."
