WASHINGTON — The head of the Arizona Republican Party asked the Supreme Court on Wednesday to at least temporarily pause a subpoena from the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol that seeks her phone records.
The emergency request from state party Chair Kelli Ward follows a decision from a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit last week that sided with the panel’s subpoena.
The committee sent T-Mobile a subpoena for Ward’s phone records in January, which Ward and her husband challenged and have fought through the courts for the last nine months.
