ATLANTA — U.S. Rep. Jody Hice on Monday became the second member of Congress to challenge a subpoena issued by the Fulton County special grand jury examining Georgia’s 2020 elections.
But unlike U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., who plans to cite the Constitution’s “Speech or Debate” clause before a federal judge on Wednesday in an attempt to quash his subpoena, Hice is opting for a different legal strategy.
A lawyer for Hice filed a motion in Fulton County Superior Court on Monday seeking to remove the matter to federal court.
