The Jan. 6 committee is meeting to vote on criminal referrals and other recommendations after a lengthy investigation into the riot at the U.S. Capitol in January 2021. The lawmakers have been looking into the lead-up and response to the siege, when supporters of former President Donald Trump attacked the Capitol in an attempt to overturn President Biden's election.
