The House Judiciary Committee, led by Chair Jim Jordan, has taken action against New York Attorney General Letitia James for failing to provide information regarding a former Justice Department official involved in prosecuting former President Trump in the Manhattan hush-money trial. Jordan's recent letter to James reiterated a previous request made on May 15 for details about the official's prior employment at the New York Attorney General’s Office.
The Committee had set a deadline of May 29 for James to comply with their request, but as of now, she has not responded. The Committee is concerned about politically motivated prosecutions by state and local officials and is seeking transparency in this matter.
