A lawmaker from West Virginia who filmed himself while protesters entered the U.S. Capitol building in Washington earlier this week won’t resign despite facing bipartisan calls and mounting pressure, his lawyer said.

Derrick Evans, a Republican and member of the West Virginia House of Delegates, was among other people from the state who traveled to Washington to attend the multi-day rallies that were organized near the White House against the Electoral College results and alleged election fraud.
