Federal authorities are charging a Pennsylvania police officer over his involvement in the Jan. 6 protest on Capitol Hill.

Joseph Fischer, a patrolman at North Cornwall Township Police Department, is being charged with obstruction of law enforcement during civil disorder, knowingly entering a restricted building without lawful authority, violent entry and conduct on Capitol grounds, and obstruction of justice/Congress.

The charges come after authorities said Fischer posted video of himself on Facebook charging a line of police officers on Capitol Hill during the insurrection, which unsuccessfully tried to prevent Congress’s certification of the Electoral College results.

Fischer wrote in one Facebook comment that “entry into the Capital was needed to send a message that we the people hold the real power.” He added in a private message that he “may need a job” after it was revealed he participated in the insurrection.

He added that he had spoken with his chief, who informed him that being fired could be the “price I have to pay to voice my freedom and liberties which I was born with and thusly taken away,” though he added he had “no regrets” about his actions.

Fischer’s employment status was not immediately clear at the time the charges were filed.

Federal authorities are still arresting and charging rioters who stormed the Capitol last month. Among those charged are several current or former members of the military or police departments across the country.

Washington, DC -- House Democrats unveiled their massive $1.9 trillion pandemic relief package, releasing the full text of the 591-page bill.

The legislation includes an increase to the Federal minimum wage to $15 per hour, $1,400 direct payments to Americans making $75,000 or less a year, as well as an extension of $400 federal unemployment benefits.

Earlier this week, Democrats beat back hundreds of amendments from Republicans who have raised concerns that the bill’s spending is vastly more than necessary and designed to advance policy priorities that go beyond helping Americans get through the pandemic.

Democrats and Joe Biden countered that a robust aid package is necessary to prevent a long and painful recovery from the pandemic.

Stimulus checks: $1,400 for individuals, $2,800 for married couples
The legislation provides for stimulus payments that amount to $1,400 for a single taxpayer, or $2,800 for a married couple that files jointly, plus $1,400 per dependent. Individuals earning up to $75,000 would get the full amount as would married couples with incomes up to $150,000.

The size of the check would shrink for those making slightly more with a hard cut-off at $100,000 for individuals and $200,000 for married couples.
