The House's Jan. 6 select committee is urging the Supreme Court to reject efforts by Arizona GOP Chair Kelli Ward to shield her phone records from congressional investigators.
House Counsel Douglas Letter said in a 38-page filing Friday evening that Ward's records are necessary to paint a complete picture of machinations by former President Donald Trump and his allies to subvert the 2020 election. Any action by the high court to prevent the committee from obtaining them quickly would likely doom the panel's
10-month effort to review Ward's contacts in the weeks following the
2020 election.
