House Republicans are expected to create a long-awaited select subcommittee that will investigate the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot when lawmakers return from the August recess in September, sources told The Hill on Wednesday.
Georgia GOP Rep. Barry Loudermilk will lead the new select committee, which is expected to focus specifically on the riot and will be part of the House Judiciary Committee. Loudermilk also led the previous investigation into the Democratic-led select committee in the last Congress.
House Speaker Mike Johnson first announced plans to establish the new committee in January, promising to deliver answers for Americans that were overlooked by Democrats on the initial panel.
