WASHINGTON — The House Committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection wants former House Speaker Newt Gingrich to submit to an interview about his alleged involvement in “aspects” of attempts to overturn Joe Biden’s 2020 election victory.
Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson asked Gingrich in a letter Thursday to appear for a voluntary interview during the week of Sept. 19.
“The committee has obtained information indicating that you have knowledge about former President Donald J. Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election, and we write to seek your voluntary cooperation,” wrote Thompson, a Mississippi Democrat.
