House Oversight votes to subpoena Pam Bondi in Epstein probe

The House Oversight Committee voted Wednesday afternoon to subpoena Attorney General Pam Bondi as part of its investigation into Jeffrey Epstein, which will force her to testify about her handling of the Justice Department’s probe.Five Republicans voted with all Democrats on the panel to subpoena the attorney general, and the effort to subpoena Bondi was led by South Carolina GOP Rep. Nancy Mace, per Politico.
“We’re gonna be talking about real, substantive issues, like the 65,000 documents that are being hidden by the DOJ right now,” Mace told reporters after the vote. 
Reps. Lauren Boebert of Colorado, Scott Perry of Pennsylvania, Tim Burchett of Tennessee and Michael Cloud of Texas also voted with the panel’s Democrats.
Bondi has faced intense public criticism over the department’s handling of the Epstein issue since a 2025 stunt she orchestrated in which she distributed binders of largely public information on Jeffrey Epstein to a group of influencers. Her so-called “Phase 1” prompted considerable backlash, as did her previous claims to have had the Epstein client list on her desk. The White House later insisted that Bondi had been referring to the volume of Epstein-related documents.
