Jan. 6 House panel expected to make criminal referrals against Trump: reports

The House select committee investigating last year’s US Capitol riot is expected to vote Monday on three criminal referrals to the Justice Department against former President Donald Trump as it wraps up its 18-month probe into the events of Jan. 6, 2021.

The panel — composed of seven Democrats and two Republicans — will likely approve a recommendation that the 76-year-old Trump face three criminal charges: inciting an insurrection, obstructing an official proceeding and conspiracy to defraud the government, according to multiple reports.
