Pelosi says smaller inauguration is "not a concession to the terrorists"

CBS News  

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi addressed security concerns Friday ahead of President-elect Joe Biden's inauguration. More than 30 lawmakers have formally requested an investigation into what they call "suspicious behavior and access given to visitors to the Capitol Complex" on Tuesday ahead of Wednesday's attack. A letter sent by the lawmakers alleges that some of their colleagues led tours of the U.S. Capitol to visitors who appeared to be "associated" with President Trump's Wednesday rally. "With the COVID relief package President-elect Biden announced last night, he is delivering on what he said when he was elected, 'help is on the way.'" "As the last jobs report of the Trump administration shows, the need could not be more urgent," Pelosi said.
