Original Note:
No actual evidence, in the form of FOIA documents or otherwise, has been put forward to support the claim that Pelosi and Epps had phone contact. Moreover, FOIA doesn't apply to members of Congress; no records applicable to Pelosi could have been obtained under FOIA. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2022/08/18/fact-check-pelosis-office-ray-epps-did-not-have-calls-before-jan-6/10167077002/ https://apnews.com/article/Fact-check-Pelosi-insurrection-FOIA-Epps-961838772892 https://www.factcheck.org/2022/01/jan-6-conspiracy-theory-centers-on-baseless-claim-about-ray-epps/
