The House Select Committee investigating January 6 is holding public hearings.
The panel held its first hearings on June 9, June 13, and June 16, and is set to hold three more.
Here's how to watch the hearings.

The House Select Committee Investigating the January 6 Insurrection at the US Capitol is bringing to light its findings from a year's worth of work with a series of public hearings in June that kicked off in primetime on Thursday.

The select committee, formed in May 2021, has nine members, seven Democrats, including Chairman Rep. Bennie Thompson, and two Republicans, Reps. Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger.

Its members and staff have spent the past year conducting hundreds of closed-door interviews, poring over hundreds of thousands of documents, and parsing phone and email records to reconstruct how President Donald Trump and his allies sought to overturn his 2020 election loss before a mob of pro-Trump rioters breached the US Capitol in an effort to stop the final certification of the 2020 election.

The panel is expected to hold six public hearings in total in June detailing their findings and hosting some witnesses to testify publicly. Three public hearings, including one in primetime, have already taken place, and two more hearings are scheduled for Tuesday, June 21, and Thursday, June 23.

Here's when and how to watch the hearings:

How can I watch the first three hearings?

The first public hearing took place in primetime on Thursday, June 9, the second on Monday, June 13, and the third on June 16.

In the first hearing, lawmakers laid out new information about Trump and his allies' efforts to overturn the election, displayed clips from recorded video depositions with figures including Trump's daughter Ivanka and son-in-law Jared Kushner, and showed a harrowing video montage laying out the timeline of the January 6 attack, including never-before-seen security camera and police bodycam footage.

The second hearing, on Monday, focused on Trump's lies that the 2020 election was tainted by massive fraud and Trump's refusal to accept defeat, laying out how Trump preemptively declared victory and doubled down on his election lies despite being advised otherwise.

And the third hearing on Thursday zeroed in on the pressure campaign to featuring Pence's former chief counsel Greg Jacob and retired federal judge J. Michael Luttig as witnesses.

When are the next January 6 Committee hearings?

The panel's next scheduled hearings are on Tuesday, June 21 at 1 p.m. ET and Thursday, June 23 at 1 p.m. ET.

Here's the roadmap for the committee's next hearings, according to Cheney's presentation during the first primetime hearing:

In the hearing initially schehuled for June 15 but postponed until next week, the committee plans to detail how Trump "corruptly planned to replace the Attorney General of the United States, so the US Justice Department would spread his false stolen election claims."
The fifth hearing will cover how Trump "corruptly pressured state legislators and election officials to change election results."
And, in the final hearing, Cheney said: "you will hear a moment-by-moment account of the hours-long attack for more than half a dozen White House staff both live in the hearing room and via videotape testimony."

Here are the witnesses who have testified so far and are expected to testify in future hearings.

Where can I watch the next hearings?

Major television networks including ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC/MSNBC, and Fox Business will air the hearings in full or in part. The hearings will also be live-streamed and available to watch in full on C-SPAN and on the Select Committee's YouTube channel.
