"Now that Pam Bondi has been fired, she’s trying to get out of her legal obligation to testify before the Oversight Committee about the Epstein files and the White House cover-up," Oversight ranking member Robert Garcia, D-Calif., fired back Wednesday. "Our bipartisan subpoena is to Pam Bondi, whether she is the Attorney General or not."
Mace and Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., another member of the powerful committee, sent Comer a letter Wednesday asking him to "publicly reaffirm" Bondi’s "legal obligation" to testify before the committee in the April 14 deposition.
"Bondi’s removal as Attorney General doesn’t erase her obligation to testify," the bipartisan duo wrote. "If anything, it makes her sworn testimony even more critical. Congress’s oversight doesn’t stop when an official leaves office."
"Pam Bondi was subpoenaed by name, not by title," Mace added in a separate statement.
Former Attorney General Bill Barr and former Health and Human Services Secretary Alexander Acosta, who served in Trump’s Cabinet during his first term, have testified before the Oversight Committee as part of its Epstein probe.
