Joe Biden in some of his final acts as U.S. president on Monday pardoned Dr. Anthony Fauci, retired general Mark Milley, House committee members who investigated the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol and members of his own family.

The statement stressed that the pardons "should not be mistaken as an acknowledgment that any individual engaged in any wrongdoing, nor should acceptance be misconstrued as an admission of guilt for any offense.

The heads of the Jan. 6 committee say they're grateful for the decision by President Joe Biden to pardon them “not for breaking the law but for upholding it.”
