January 6 committee to use last meeting to refer Trump to justice department

Lawmakers expected to outline findings and vote to issue criminal and civil referrals on Monday

The House January 6 select committee plans to use its final meeting on Monday to refer Donald Trump, among others, to the justice department for conduct connected to the former president's efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

As it prepares to release its voluminous investigative report, the panel is expected to use its meeting, announced for 1pm, to take several conclusive steps. These include outlining an executive summary of its findings and legislative recommendations, voting to formally adopt the report, and then voting to issue criminal and civil referrals.
