If Virginia "Ginni" Thomas refuses to testify in front of the select committee, Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) suggested the committee could subpoena her on Jan. 6.

The communication between Ginni Thomas and former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows and Trump attorney John Eastman has drawn scrutiny. According to reports, she texted Mark Meadows to urge him to overturn the 2020 election results in November 2020.

“But the committee is fully prepared to contemplate a subpoena if she does not,” Cheney continued. “I hope it doesn’t get to that. I hope she will come in voluntarily.”

“The committee is engaged in a discussion with her counsel. Cheney told CNN's "State of the Union" on Sunday that he hopes she will agree to come in voluntarily. Cheney is one of two Republicans that sit on the Democrat-dominated panel to investigate the breach of the U.S. Capital on Jan 6, 2021.
