"As Attorney General, you are directly responsible for overseeing the Department's collection, review, and determinations regarding the release of files pursuant to the Epstein Files Transparency Act, and the Committee therefore believes that you possess valuable insight into these efforts."
"The Committee has questions regarding the Department of Justice's handling of the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein and his associates and its compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act, Comer wrote."
Attorney General Pam Bondi has been subpoenaed by the US House Oversight Committee to provide sworn testimony on April 14 regarding the Department of Justice's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein investigation and compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Committee chair James Comer stated that Bondi, as Attorney General, directly oversees the department's collection, review, and release of Epstein-related files. This subpoena follows Bondi's February testimony before the House Judiciary Committee and comes amid repeated criticism of the Trump administration's handling of Epstein files. Bondi previously claimed in February 2025 that Epstein's client list was on her desk, but later retracted those statements, saying no such list existed. The administration has faced ongoing criticism for failing to deliver promised transparency regarding the case.
