House Oversight Committee subpoenas Attorney General Pam Bondi for April 14 deposition on Epstein files handling
The House Oversight Committee formally subpoenaed Attorney General Pam Bondi on Tuesday to testify on April 14 about the Justice Department's handling of Jeffrey Epstein investigation files and compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act. The subpoena follows a committee vote earlier this month and comes amid bipartisan criticism over the DOJ's management and release of millions of Epstein-related documents. The Justice Department called the subpoena "completely unnecessary" and offered alternative briefing arrangements.
