Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene is now calling for Bowman to be prosecuted and says that he violated the same law, interfering with an official proceeding, that January 6 defendants were prosecuted. Bowman claims he could not open an exit door and pulled the fire alarm to unlock the door. The former school principal, who would have conducted dozens of fire drills during his career, is facing a Republican threat of expulsion and an investigation by the Capitol Police. 

The US avoided a government shutdown after the Senate secured enough votes to pass a bill to keep the government funded for 45 days just hours before Saturday's midnight deadline.
