The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform on Tuesday said it has subpoenaed Attorney General Pam Bondi to sit for a deposition on the Department of Justice’s handling of matters related to notorious sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

The panel wants to question Bondi about the DOJ’s compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which passed with overwhelming support in Congress and was signed by President Donald Trump in mid-November.
