Thomas has previously said she “can’t wait to clear up misconceptions,” suggesting she would comply with the panel’s request to testify.
PUBLISHED 4:00 PM ET Jun. 22, 2022The House’s Jan. 6 committee plans to continue its public hearings into July as its investigation of the Capitol riot deepens.
The panel's chairman, Rep. Bennie Thompson, told reporters Wednesday that the committee is receiving “a lot of information” as its yearlong inquiry intensifies with hearings into the attack on Jan. 6, 2021. “It’s our expectation that we will keep talking and trying to get her to come in,” said Thompson, D-Miss.
The next hearing, set for Thursday, is expected to highlight former Justice Department officials testifying about Trump’s proposals to reject the election results. It would wrap up this month’s work. The committee would start up again in July, Thompson said. Meanwhile, in a sign of a widening Justice Department investigation, federal law enforcement officials served a round of subpoenas Wednesday related to alternate — or fake — slates of electors who falsely sought to declare Trump the winner in their states in 2020.
