Both congressmen acknowledged more hearings could happen and that the select committee however not done yet.

“When the report comes out, we may have one or two hearings,” Kinzinger said. As with Cassidy Hutchinson, if we get information the public needs to know, we may call for more hearings.

“Whether through hearings or other means to convey the facts, we have a responsibility to present what we’ve uncovered, and we’re discussing the best way after this hearing,” she said.
