The U.S. Capitol Police announced it will hold a vote of no confidence this week over multiple officials in its senior ranks, more than a month after the Capitol building was breached by a group of rioters amid the counting of electoral votes on Jan. 6.

According to the Capitol Police, while the vote “does not compel any specific action, it does speak to the sentiment and concerns of some of our officers that our senior commanders are working to address.”
