The House January 6 committee subpoenaed Meadows for documents and deposition testimony concerning election-reversal activity and the attack. Meadows initially produced thousands of pages, including text messages, while asserting privileges over other material. The partial production yielded primary communications underlying multiple findings about White House conduct before and during January 6.
