(Washington, DC) — The House is expected to hold former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows in contempt of Congress today. Meadows has defied a subpoena to testify before the House committee investigating the January 6th attack on the Capitol. The House Rules Committee is setting parameters for today’s debate on the Meadows citation.
Meadows was former President Trump’s last chief of staff. He was with Trump in the White House during the hours of the Capitol attack and received numerous text messages from allies urging him to convince the President to do something to stop it. Meadows is a former Republican congressman from North Carolina.
