At least if they lie, they can be charged for lying to a Senate Committee.
Edit: Got a lot of replies, can't reply to all of them. I understand the concern about possibly no results occurring as a result of the hearings, but since none of us have a crystal ball, we can't assume the outcome. Let's wait until after the hearings to see what happens. One pede was right though, they may not necessary get in trouble if there isn't an oath being administered to ensure honesty.
Do more than ask. They will just deny
