Establishing the Select Subcommittee to Investigate the Remaining Questions Surrounding January 6, 2021.
This resolution establishes a House select subcommittee under the Judiciary Committee to investigate unresolved aspects of the January 6, 2021, Capitol attack. The subcommittee, composed of up to 8 members appointed by the Speaker (with minority input), has authority to hold hearings, issue subpoenas, and obtain relevant records from the House. It must submit a final report to the Judiciary Committee by December 31, 2026, and will dissolve 30 days after that date or at the end of the 119th Congress, whichever occurs first. The bill does not impose direct obligations on the public but creates a procedural mechanism for congressional oversight.

MINOR
This is a technical transition from the introduced version to the engrossed version of HRES 605, which establishes a Select Subcommittee to Investigate the Remaining Questions Surrounding January 6, 2021. No substantive policy language was changed. The differences are limited to document formatting (reformatting the header into standard engrossed layout), an updated date from July 23 to September 3, 2025, and the addition of the Clerk's name at the end.
TECHNICAL
Document was reformatted from introduced format to engrossed format: the header block (congress number, session, resolution number, chamber, date) was restructured into separate lines following standard engrossed layout conventions.
The name of the Clerk, Kevin F. McCumber, was added at the end of the document, which is standard for engrossed versions.
