Trump Officially Subpoenaed , by January 6 Committee.
CNN reports that on Oct. 21, the House Select Committee announced that it has officially sent a subpoena to the former president.
Trump is being ordered to provide certain documents pertaining to the committee's
Jan. 6 investigation by Nov. 4.
He is also being ordered to sit for
“one or more days of deposition testimony beginning on or about Nov. 14.”.
As demonstrated in our hearings, we have assembled overwhelming evidence, including from dozens of your former appointees and staff, that you personally orchestrated and oversaw a multi-part effort to overturn the 2020 presidential election and to obstruct the peaceful transition of power, House Select Committee, via letter to Trump.
While Trump previously took to Truth Social to share a
Fox News story alleging that he "loves the idea of testifying," it is not yet known if he will comply.
CNN reports that Trump has the option to fight the subpoena in court.
House committee members gave closing remarks at the latest public hearing last week in support of voting to subpoena Trump. .
