Collins Voting for Insurrection Investigation

Just heard it on my local NPR. Checked and didn't see any other posts here about it.

Will remove this if I'm a Johnny come lately.

Been out of touch with the media for the last four hours.

Probably not to eliminate the filibuster, though which will still require him.
But this also could be a good opportunity to hang the insurrection around 55 or so Republicans and let the House go it alone without a bipartisan committee (or maybe one with a handful of Republicans like Kitzinger and Cheney).
