As part of an FBI investigation from 2023 dubbed operation “Arctic Frost,” agents obtained phone data from eight Republican senators and one Republican representative from Jan. 4 through Jan. 7, 2021, according to Sen. Chuck Grassley’s office .

The Arctic Frost investigation formed the basis of special counsel Jack Smith’s elector case against Donald Trump. Smith indicted Trump with four felony counts based on findings from Arctic Frost, including conspiracy to defraud the United States, conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, obstruction of an official proceeding and conspiracy against rights.

The data collected shows when and to whom senators made calls, as well as how long the calls were and where they were made from. The data does not include the content of the calls.
