Kinzinger is one of two Republicans who were selected to investigate the January 6 Capitol protest.
The Illinois representative posted a picture of the chilling note on Sunday with the caption: "Here is the letter.
"Addressed to my wife, sent to my home, threatening the life of my family."
The note reads in part: "That pimp you married not only broke his oath, he sold his soul."

"Yours and Christian's too!" the anonymous writer said, referencing Kinzinger's five-month-old baby.
"Adam's activities have hurt not only this country, but countless patriotic and God-fearing families.
"Therefore, although it might take time, he will be executed.
"But don't worry! You and Christian will be joining Adam in hell too!" the shocking letter said.
Kinzinger responded to the letter on Twitter saying, "The Darkness is spreading courtesy of cowardly leaders fearful of truth."

The Representative spoke of the event on ABC and said that he wasn't worried "personally."
"Now that I have a wife and kids, of course, it's a little different," he said.
"There's violence in the future, I'm going to tell you.
"And until we get a grip on telling people the truth, we can't expect any differently."
The Sun reached out to Kinzinger's office regarding this incident, but they did not immediately respond for comment.
'YOU GUYS HELD'
The January 6 hearing comes as Kinzinger told Capitol cops "you guys won, you guys held," during testimony on the riot.
Wiping his eyes, the GOP rep and former Air Force veteran said: "You guys may feel, individually, a little broken...but you guys won. You guys held."
An emotional Kinzinger - one of two Republicans serving on the committee - added: "Democracies are not defined by our bad days. We're defined by how we come back from bad days.
"We still don't know exactly what happened. Why? Because many in my party have treated this as just another partisan fight.
"It's toxic and it's a disservice to the officers and their families.
"This cannot continue to be a partisan fight. I’m a Republican, I’m a conservative, but in order to heal from the damage caused that day, we need to call out the facts.
"It’s time to stop the outrage and the conspiracies that fueled the violence and division in this country, and, most importantly, we need to reject those that promote it."
ADAM AND SOFIA
The chilling threat to Kinzinger's family comes over two years after he married Department of Homeland Security press secretary Sofia Boza-Holman.
Sofia was also a former aide to John Boehner and Vice President Mike Pence.
According to her Twitter account, Boza-Holman was a Director of Strategic Media to the Trump Inaugural Committee.
Kinzinger and Boza-Holman married over Valentine’s weekend in February of 2020.
The pair had a destination wedding in Guatemala and formally tied the knot on February 16.
Kinzinger shared the news on social media, writing: “I am one very lucky man to have this incredible woman as my wife.”

The pair had gotten engaged in the summer of 2019, with Kinzinger also sharing the news on Instagram.
The congressman posted a photo standing side by side with Boza-Holman with her hand over his chest, showing off the giant diamond ring.
