The Congressional Committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol is not sure how hard to fight for compliance with subpoenas of Arizona GOP Chairwoman Kelli Ward's phone records.
Judge Diane Humetewa approved the Committee's stipulation with the Wards to extend the deadline for an Answer to be filed until May 30. The Committee noted that it is trying to decide how hard to fight for compliance with the subpoena.
The Congressional Defendants continue to be actively engaged in studying the various alternatives in this and other related litigation. Additionally, given the schedules of the Select Committee Members and the press of other critical House business, additional time is required prior to responding.
The subpoenas of T-Mobile's records became public knowledge when the Wards filed a suit in U.S. District Court in Prescott on February 1 to quash the effort.
(Arizona's Law had been pestering the Jan. 6 Committee the past several weeks to learn what their next steps would be. Now we know.)
