Kinzinger said he would love to see former Vice President Mike Pence testify before the committee.
Donald Trump tried to overturn the 2020 election results multiple times, but he was refused by Vice President Mike Pence. The certification of the Electoral College results affirmed the victory of Joe Biden.
The former vice president himself has not yet communicated with the committee, despite several of his aides cooperating with them.
Kinzinger said he would love to see that during an appearance on the CBS program.
The Illinois Republican hopes that he would do so voluntarily.
I think the vice president would want to tell his story because he did the right thing on that day. If he does not, we will look at the options we have available to us.

The schedule for the upcoming hearings will be decided by the panel in the coming weeks.
He said that they are not building a broader narrative right now.
More than 100,000 documents have been obtained by the committee in its probe.
Kinzinger didn't rule out subpoenas for some of his Republican colleagues. He and Liz Cheney are the only Republicans on the panel.
We have requested information from various members in order to make a decision on whether or not to issue a subpoena, and we have a question of whether or not we can get the information in time.
I think subpoena is the best way to get that information. We know a lot of information about it, even if some members of Congress tell us differently.
