WASHINGTON – Tuesday's House hearings on the Capitol attack Jan. 6, 2021, focused on the pressure former President Donald Trump applied to state officials to overturn 2020 election results, including Trump’s infamous call to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger.
Here's what happened today
Who testified: Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, the office's chief operating officer Gabe Sterling, Arizona GOP House Speaker Rusty Bowers and Shaye Moss, a former election registration officer in Fulton County, Georgia.

'Dangerous and escalating campaign of pressure': Trump's efforts to pressure officials to stop the electoral vote count "targeted every tier of federal and state elected officials," Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., said at the hearing's start. "Anyone who got in the way of Donald Trump's continued hold on power after he lost the election was the subject of a dangerous and escalating campaign of pressure."
