House Oversight panel votes to subpoena AG Pam Bondi in Epstein probe

By Danya Gainor, CNN

(CNN) — The Republican-led House Oversight Committee voted to subpoena US Attorney General Pam Bondi for testimony about her role in the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files as part of the committee’s probe into the late convicted sex offender.

GOP Rep. Nancy Mace moved to subpoena the attorney general and it passed 24-19, with bipartisan support. Mace was joined by Democrats and fellow Republicans Tim Burchett, Michael Cloud, Lauren Boebert and Scott Perry.

CNN has reached out to the Justice Department for comment.

Ahead of the vote, Oversight Chairman James Comer told the committee he had spoke with the attorney general’s chief of staff, and that Bondi had offered to give members a briefing – a few at a time – regarding the Department of Justice’s Epstein files.
