The House Oversight Committee on Wednesday voted to subpoena Attorney General Pam Bondi for a deposition on the Department of Justice's handling of its investigation of Jeffrey Epstein , and its compliance with a law requiring all documents related to the notorious sex offender to be made public. The 24-19 vote by the committee came after growing criticism of the DOJ for failing to release all of the Epstein files, and reports that it has removed from public view tens of thousands of documents that previously were made public.

In addition to Mace, four other Republicans joined most of the panel's Democrats in voting to subpoena Bondi, who is a Republican: Lauren Boebert of Colorado; Pennsylvania's Scott Perry; Tim Burchett of Tennessee; and Michael Cloud of Texas.
