Final hearing on Capitol Hill attack, Trump extradition to Justice Department incomplete

The committee’s ninth and likely final hearing on the extradition of Donald Trump to the U.S. Department of Justice on criminal conduct was inconclusive.

Several people, including some members of the panel, had called for Trump to be extradited to the US Department of Justice.

Instead, there was a unanimous vote to have former President Trump testify before the committee, a move meant to swap one symbolic act for another.

The decision on whether or not to indict Trump for crimes related to the January 6, 2021 attack on US Capitol Hill rests with the Justice Department, not Congress.
