She decided to allow an even number of people on the independent panel \u2014 with equal parts Republican and Democrat. She also granted fair subpoena powers to both Democrats and Republicans, changing \u201cthe way subpoenas would be issued, requiring a joint decision by the chair and the vice chair or after a majority vote,\u201d as reported later by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/congress\/pelosi-offers-concessions-bipartisan-jan-6-capitol-attack-commission-n1264917\"><span class=\"s1\">NBC News<\/span><\/a>. The original proposal would have given Democrats the ability to appoint 7 out of the 11 seats on the commission and given them unilateral subpoena power.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Republicans want Pelosi to include other situations of political violence in the investigations of the commission, including last year\u2019s protests, CNN reported.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Pelosi discussed her proposal at a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c-span.org\/video\/?511149-1\/speaker-pelosi-holds-weekly-briefing\"><span class=\"s1\">news conference<\/span><\/a> Thursday and confirmed that changes had been made to it. She said, \u201cIf we can come to agreement on the first two, well, why would they object to the scope, which is to find the truth of what happened on January 6th when an insurrection descended upon the Capitol.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">She said, \u201cOur purpose is to find the truth for that, it\u2019s not about investigating one thing or another that they may want to draw into this.\u201d She said that she is optimistic, but there are other options she does not want to use because she wants it to be bipartisan.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">She added that it is a process, \u201cbecause at the end of the day, you weigh the equities\u2026\u2018is this a path to the truth?\u2019 And that\u2019s what we\u2019ll find out and I\u2019m optimistic that we can.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Last week, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2021\/04\/20\/politics\/nancy-pelosi-january-6-commission-talks\/index.html\"><span class=\"s1\">CNN<\/span><\/a> reported that Pelosi said in a letter to colleagues she had \u201conce again sent a proposal for such a Commission to the Republicans, modeled after the 9\/11 Commission.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">On Thursday, Pelosi said that some Republicans have heard from her, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/congress\/pelosi-offers-concessions-bipartisan-jan-6-capitol-attack-commission-n1264917\"><span class=\"s1\">NBC News<\/span><\/a> reported, \u201cSenate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., have not received a proposal from Pelosi with these changes, spokesmen for the two Republican leaders said.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2021\/04\/20\/politics\/nancy-pelosi-january-6-commission-talks\/index.html\">showed<\/a> that he was ready to negotiate, but that he had not heard about any alterations to the proposal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNumber one, the commission needs to be balanced,\u201d McConnell said. \u201cAnd number two, the scope of it needs to deal with a little bit broader than just January the sixth. We\u2019ve also had a number of violent disturbances around the country last year, and I think we ought to look at this broader scope, and with a totally balanced, 9\/11-style commission. If she were willing to put that forward, I think it would enjoy broad bipartisan support.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At his own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c-span.org\/video\/?511150-1\/minority-leader-mccarthy-holds-weekly-briefing\"><span class=\"s1\">news conference<\/span><\/a> on Thursday, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) confirmed that he has not heard from Pelosi, saying, \u201cshe hasn\u2019t even responded to us or talked to us so it\u2019s still a long way away. I think if anything is going to have to happen, she\u2019s going to have to talk with us instead of saying she\u2019s talking to some Republicans. We don\u2019t even know if they\u2019re elected, who she\u2019s talking to.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><i><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
