House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced that leaders of Congress have decided to resume the joint session to certify President-elect Joe Biden's win on Wednesday evening once the Capitol is "cleared for use."
"In consultation with Leader Hoyer and Whip Clyburn and after calls to the Pentagon, the Justice Department and the Vice President, we have decided we should proceed tonight at the Capitol once it is cleared for use. Leader Hoyer will be sending out more guidance later today," she said.
