Hours before a Friday deadline, the select committee investigating the January 6 attack on the Capitol said it received "thousands" of pages of documents.
The committee did not describe the documents further, but it had sent letters to multiple agencies seeking records related to the gathering and dissemination of intelligence before the attack, security preparation at the Capitol and the planning of events in Washington, D.C., leading up to the attack. The committee had given agencies a Friday deadline to disclose requested documents.
"With several hours to go before today's deadline, the Select Committee had received thousands of pages of documents in response to our first set of requests, and our investigative team is actively engaged to keep that flow of information going," the select committee said in a tweet.
