Wisconsin's Robin Vos, speaker of the state Assembly, is technically the only name on the ballot this fall.
On Friday afternoon, Vos was served with a subpoena from the Select Committee seeking details about that call. It's a subpoena Vos' attorneys said he intends to fight, not only because he believes the committee's inquiry is illegitimate, but because he believes the committee's work is a politically motivated"public relations scheme."
Wisconsin Assembly Speaker Robin Vos speaks during a contentious legislative session on December 4, 2018, in Madison. Vos said efforts to force him to testify before the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the U.S. Capitol interfere with his chances at reelection, even though he is technically the only candidate on the ballot this fall.
"In short, the Committee is demanding Speaker Vos appear for a deposition to answer questions irrelevant to the Committee's investigation, with virtually no notice, in the closing days of his reelection campaign, merely because of the Committee's public relations scheme."His attorneys said the 48-hour notice that came with the subpoena gave them little time to consider the constitutional ramifications of the committee's request.
