In a rare bipartisan rebuke, the Republican-led House Oversight Committee voted 24-19 on 4 March 2026 to compel Attorney General Pam Bondi to testify under oath about the Justice Department's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files.
The motion was introduced by Rep. Nancy Mace, a Republican from South Carolina, and passed with five Republicans crossing the aisle to vote alongside Democrats. The four GOP members who joined Mace were Rep. Tim Burchett of Tennessee, Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado, Rep. Michael Cloud of Texas, and Rep. Scott Perry of Pennsylvania.
