Speaker Kevin McCarthy met with the mother of rioter Ashli Babbitt, who was killed in the 2021 attack on the Capitol.

The trim system on the same model Bombardier jet was the subject of a previous safety directive by federal authorities. Bombardier said in a statement that it was reviewing the report.
