Comer reconsidering contempt resolutions against Clintons after they agree to depositions
ABC News
Bill and Hillary Clinton have agreed to sit for closed-door depositions in the House Oversight Committee’s Jeffrey Epstein investigation.
The Republican chairman of the House Oversight Committee says he is reconsidering moving contempt resolutions forward after former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton agreed to sit for closed-door depositions in the committee's Jeffrey Epstein investigation.
The House was expected to vote as soon as Wednesday on two contempt of Congress resolutions against the Clintons -- until the Clintons agreed to Republicans' demands on Monday evening.
"They negotiated in good faith. You did not," Clinton spokesperson Angel Ureña posted on X. "They told you under oath what they know, but you don't care. But the former President and former Secretary of State will be there. They look forward to setting a precedent that applies to everyone."
Last month, the House Oversight Committee voted to advance two bipartisan resolutions holding the Clintons in contempt of Congress for failing to comply with its subpoenas relating to convicted sex offender Epstein.
Oversight Committee Chair James Comer said Monday evening he needs more clarity on what the Clintons are offering.
