Five members of a Borger, Texas, family were arrested for taking part in the Jan. 6 insurrection. They appeared before a federal judge in Amarillo on Wednesday.

The bill creating the commission, which would have subpoena power, passed 252-175. Republican U.S. Reps. Tony Gonzales of San Antonio and Van Taylor of Plano were the only two GOP Texans to support the measure.

Police fatally shot the suspect they say rammed a car into a barrier and then lunged at officers with a knife. One officer was killed, and another was injured.
