The House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol on Monday scheduled a hearing for Tuesday afternoon to hear what the panel called “newly obtained evidence” and take testimony.
The hearing is scheduled for 1 p.m., according to a press release issued by the committee, in which no further details were given about the surprise session.
The panel has held a series of hearings this month to set out the findings of its nearly a-year investigation, but no additional session was planned for this week.
The committee has scheduled at least two more hearings for July, according to its chairman, Rep. Bennie Thompson, a Mississippi Democrat. These hearings are expected to detail how a crowd of violent extremists attacked the Capitol and how President Donald J. Trump did nothing to cancel the violence for more than three hours.
Previous hearings have focused on the pressure campaigns that Mr. Trump launched against the Justice Department, state officials and his own vice president, while trying to hold on to power.
