“We will probably as a committee issue subpoenas either to witnesses or organizations within a week”
Thompson was responding to a question about how telecommunications and social media companies were responding to their records request. He said some have cooperated and some have not. (He would not say which ones)
Thompson said that while subpoenas of individual lawmakers have not come up at this point, that doesn’t mean it won’t happen.
“They have not been discussed. But that does not mean it won't happen.”
“They have not been discussed. But that does not mean it won't happen.”
Thompson also said the committee is planning closed door hearings.. but they have not held one yet.
