The panel issued a subpoena to a former White House adviser who helped the former president craft his speech on January 6, 2021.

The panel on Tuesday issued a subpoena to former White House advisor Ross Worthington, whom the committee believes to have helped draft former President Donald Trump's speech at the Ellipse on January 6.

The speech had been key to the House's impeachment of Trump for incitement of an insurrection. Many of the protesters in attendance began walking toward the Capitol as he delivered it. The panel on Tuesday also issued subpoenas to Andy Surabian and Arthur Schwartz, both of whom served as advisers to Donald Trump, Jr. In letters to them, committee Thompson said the committee has"reason to believe that you communicated with both organizers and speakers at the rally held on the Ellipse."

The panel set late January and early February deadlines for the trio of Trump allies to hand over documents and sit or appear virtually for depositions.
