The January 6 committee are seeking phone, email, and text records from 'several hundred people' for

Capitol riot probe, including members of Congress

The January 6 select committee is seeking electronic communication records from "several hundred people," including from members of Congress, in connection with their Capitol riot probe.

Rep. Bennie Thompson, who serves as chairman of the House Select Committee investigating the January 6 insurrection, told reporters Monday that the committee plans on obtaining phone, email, and text records.

Thompson said the committee will initially reach out to telecommunication companies, saying that issuing subpoenas "is not the first thing we have to do."

"It won't be tomorrow," Thompson told reporters outside the House Democratic Caucus meeting. "We'll do what's required to get the information. As to the time when we'll do it and other things, we're not sure at this point."
