NEW: The Jan. 6 committee announced subpoenas for more than a dozen people who led groups of 'alternate electors' for Trump.

Rep. Bennie Thompson , the chair of the select committee, sent a letter to the chairs and secretaries of each slate seeking documents and depositions.

"The existence of these purported alternate-elector votes," Thompson continued, "was used as a justification to delay or block the certification of the election during the Joint Session."Besides Arizona, these delegations were from Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and New Mexico — mostly battleground states that put Biden over the top in the Electoral College.
