Rep. Robert Garcia and all Democratic members of the House Oversight Committee filed the resolution after Bondi failed to appear for her deposition on April 14, 2026, despite a bipartisan subpoena.
The resolution seeks to have the House go to court to compel Bondi’s testimony about the Trump Administration’s handling of the Epstein files and alleged White House cover-up.
The subpoena, issued in March 2026 and supported by some Republicans, remains legally binding even after Bondi’s firing, as Democrats push for accountability and answers for Epstein’s abuse survivors.
