Rep. Jim Jordan, GOP chair of the House Judiciary Committee, and Rep. Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga., have taken steps to obtain documents and interviews from the Fulton County District Attorney's office related to the Jan. 6 Committee. The lawmakers sent requests to employees of the DA's office, seeking information on District Attorney Fani Willis' coordination with the January 6 Select Committee.
The committee's press release stated that previous attempts to obtain documents from Willis were unsuccessful, leading them to pursue alternative means to gather the required information. Letters were sent to Assistant Chief Investigator Michael Hill, Assistant Chief Investigator Trina Swanson-Lucas, Chief Senior District Attorney Donald Wakeford, and Deputy District Attorney Will Wooten, requesting all documents and communications exchanged with members or representatives of the Jan. 6 Committee.
The letters also demanded any documents or communications referencing records obtained from the Jan. 6 Committee. The employees were given a deadline of Feb. 20 to submit the requested documentation.
Willis had previously declined to provide the requested materials, citing attorney-client privilege and other legal protections. This led to a court order for Willis to produce communication records with special counsel Jack Smith and the House Select Committee on Jan. 6.

The House Judiciary Committee initiated its investigation into Willis' potential coordination with the House Jan. 6 Committee in December 2023. Jordan and Loudermilk took charge of the probe after discovering alleged coordination between Willis' office and the Select Committee.
Willis had filed charges against former President Donald Trump, including counts of violation of the Georgia RICO Act, criminal solicitation, criminal conspiracy, filing false documents, and making false statements. Trump pleaded not guilty to all charges.
Efforts to reach Hill, Swanson-Lucas, Wakeford, Wooten, and the DA's Office for comment were unsuccessful at the time of reporting.
