we will show you the shocking and disturbing video of a black man killed in an encounter with police. thanks for joining us. well, after months of difficult negotiations the u.s. house of representatives has approved the creation of an independent bipartisan commission into the attack on the capitol last january. on this vote the yays are 252 and the nays are 175. the bill is passed without objection a motion to reconsider is laid upon the table. 35 republicans broke ranks with their party s leadership in the final vote. that could be significant as the measure now heads to a showdown in the u.s. senate. both republican and democratic lawmakers hammered out the deal last week four months after thousands of trump supporters stormed the capitol, but once the plan was unveiled senate minority leader mitch mcconnell had this to say. after careful consideration, i ve made the decision to oppose the house democrats slanted and unbalanced proposal for another commission to
