GOP leaders such as McConnell and McCarthy opposed the commission.

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell on Wednesday said he opposed the January 6 commission and called it a “slanted and unbalanced proposal.”

The bill will establish a 10-person commission with 5 Republicans and 5 Democrats from the House and Senate.

The lawmakers will have subpoena power and produce a report on their findings.

Some lawmakers have floated the idea of forcing Trump to testify about ‘his role.’
