Washington, D.C. — Today, the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform secured a subpoena for Attorney General Pam Bondi following a motion by Congresswoman Nancy Mace supported by all Committee Democrats. This motion comes as Attorney General Bondi has failed to comply with the bipartisan House Oversight Committee subpoena issued in August 2025, requiring the release of the complete, unredacted files to the Committee, and as the Department of Justice (DOJ) under her leadership continues to illegally withhold and conceal Epstein file materials from Congress.
“For months, Attorney General Bondi has been instrumental in orchestrating the White House’s cover-up of the Epstein files, and has failed to comply with our bipartisan subpoena for the release of the complete, unredacted files. The American people deserve transparency, survivors deserve justice, and we are demanding answers,” said Ranking Member Robert Garcia.
During a full committee hearing of the House Oversight Committee, Republican Congresswoman Nancy Mace proposed the motion to subpoena Attorney General Bondi for her failure to comply with the legally binding Oversight Committee subpoena and the Epstein Files Transparency Act. All Oversight Democrats in attendance voted in the affirmative, joined by Republican Rep. Nancy Mace, Rep. Lauren Boebert, Rep. Michael Cloud, Rep. Scott Perry, and Rep. Tim Burchett. The bipartisan subpoena passed the House Oversight Committee 24 to 19.
Last month, Ranking Member Garcia demanded answers from Attorney General Bondi about the DOJ’s suppression of documents alleging President Trump’s sexual abuse of an underage victim after viewing unredacted DOJ documents, which include specific allegations against President Trump, that were not reflected in the DOJ’s public database. Ranking Member Garcia also called for Attorney General Bondi to resign after learning that the DOJ has been spying on the search history of Members of Congress who go through the “unredacted” versions of the Epstein files. Ranking Member Garcia called out Attorney General Bondi’s massive doxxing of victims after exposing the identities of dozens of survivors of Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse in their latest release of documents. In January, Ranking Member Garcia demanded the full release of all the files in the DOJ’s possession after learning that the Department released only 3.5 million pages of the Epstein files, out of the total 6 million pages they collected.
