For Bennie Thompson, chairing January 6 investigation brings full circle a career spent on voting rights

From his perch in the House gallery above the chamber that day, he couldn't quite tell what was going on, until his wife phoned him to let him know what was unfolding on television. Then the Capitol Police came and instructed him -- and other members -- to crouch, and take off their congressional lapel pins, so they would not become targets for the intruders.
