The Select Selections

CBS News 6/29/21:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi introduced legislation to establish a select committee to investigate the January 6 attack on the Capitol. Under the bill, she would appoint eight members of the committee and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy would appoint five.
However, an aide to the House speaker said that she “is seriously considering including a Republican among her eight appointments.” If Pelosi were to appoint a Republican, the partisan division of the committee would instead be seven Democrats and six Republicans.
