Rudy Giuliani, who was Trump's personal lawyer and headed Trump's 2020 election legal team, was issued a subpoena along with lawyers Jenna Ellis and Sidney Powell and Republican strategist Boris Epshteyn. The Committee announced it seeks documents and deposition testimony from each of them.

"We expect these individuals to join the nearly 400 witnesses who have spoken with the Select Committee as the committee works to get answers for the American people about the violent attack on our democracy," Thompson further wrote.

"The Select Committee's investigation has revealed credible evidence that you publicly promoted claims that the 2020 election was stolen and participated in attempts to disrupt or delay the certification of the election results based on your allegations," Thompson said.
