(CNN) The top Democrat and Republican on the House Homeland Security Committee struck a deal to create a bipartisan commission to investigate the January 6 attack on the Capitol, breaking a months-long logjam between House leaders about how to structure the independent panel. "I'm going to look through it," McCarthy said, adding that he had not signed off on the deal Katko reached before it was announced. Asked whether he believed GOP House leadership could have a problem with the deal, Katko said, "I'll see about it." Asked if McCarthy could stop the bipartisan deal, Pelosi told CNN Friday, "Why don't you ask him?" Ultimately, Pelosi tapped Thompson to reach the final agreement with Katko, one of the 10 House Republicans who voted to impeach Trump in January.
