Thursday, March 4, 2021: A Quiet House Floor Amid Security Threats

Speaker Pelosi says "troublemakers" shouldn't think they were the reason the House decided to scrap its session today, March 4th, the date of a popular QAnon conspiracy theory that heightened security on Capitol Hill.

Plus, a Republican governor weighs in on some states lifting their mask mandates, saying he doesn't get "what the big rush" is to get rid of something that has saved lives.  

And House Democrats take a victory lap over the passage of two major bills on voting rights and police reform. But those bills' chances in the Senate are slim.

On today's program: CNN's Dana Bash and Donie O'Sullivan. Also on the show: Republican West Virginia Governor Jim Justice, Democratic New York Congressman Jamaal Bowman, The New York Times' Maggie Haberman, and Illinois elementary school principal Chrissy Cox.
