The House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol riot announced it will hold a new hearing on Tuesday “to present recently obtained evidence and receive witness testimony.”

The surprise hearing, set for 1 p.m. ET on Capitol Hill, was announced Monday afternoon. It was not immediately clear what new evidence the committee planned to reveal. The panel did not identify who is scheduled to testify.

The committee previously planned to hold seven hearings on the initial findings from its nearly yearlong investigation into Jan. 6, 2021.

Those hearings were originally expected to be held in June. But the committee’s chairman, Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., said last week that the final hearings in the series would come in July, suggesting that the schedule changed due to new evidence coming in.
