House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) warned Republicans on Monday that they’ll regret their decision to reexamine the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Jeffries said Democrats will use their participation in a newly launched GOP investigation of the rampage to highlight President Trump’s role in fomenting the violence that day.

“Republicans will regret that they've decided to go down this road," Jeffries told reporters in the Capitol.

Republicans last week voted to create a new Jan. 6 investigative committee, which will revisit the attack almost three years after the initial Jan. 6 select committee delivered its report blaming Trump for inciting the riot. The new panel also has powers to investigate the old one.
