During her closing statement on the sixth day of public hearings of the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack, vice chair Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., thanked Cassidy Hutchinson, an aide to former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, for her testimony.

“Our nation is preserved by those who know the fundamental difference between right and wrong,” she said.

Cheney raised that the the committee has seen evidence of some intimidation of witnesses ahead of their testimonies. Without using identifying information, Cheney shared the "evidence of one particular practice that raises significant concerns."

“I think that most Americans know that attempting to influence witnesses to testify untruthfully presents very serious concerns,” Cheney said.

The hearing was unexpectedly announced a week after the Jan. 6 committee said they were taking a break until the month of July. In the year since its creation, the committee has conducted more than 1,000 interviews, seeking critical information and documents from people witness to, or involved in, the violence that day.
