Lawmakers Begin Planning 9/11-Style Commission on Pandemic
----------------------------------------------------------

House Intelligence Committee Chair Adam Schiff says he's consulting with
other lawmakers on plans to form an independent commission to probe why
the U.S. was so unprepared for the coronavirus pandemic. Schiff told The
Washington Post the inquiry would be modeled after the 9/11 Commission
and should convene once the nation is back on its feet.
