![Dear Chairman Comer:
We write in response to the subpoena you issued as Chairman of the House of
Representatives Committee on Oversight and Government Reform on March 17, 2026, to then-
Attorney General Bondi, which sought her testimony at a deposition scheduled to occur on April
14, 2026. The Committee issued the subpoena to Ms. Bondi in her official capacity as Attorney
General, rather than her personal capacity. Indeed, the subpoena is specifically addressed to
“Pamela J. Bondi, Attorney General of the United States” and the accompanying cover letter
specifically seeks information from her “[a]s Attorney General[.]”
Ms. Bondi no longer holds that office. As a result, because Ms. Bondi no longer can
testify in her official capacity as Attorney General, the Department’s position is that the
subpoena no longer obligates her to appear on April 14. We kindly ask that you confirm that the
subpoena is withdrawn. The Department remains committed to working cooperatively with the
Committee and continues to believe that additional compulsory process is unnecessary in light of
our demonstrated willingness to voluntarily assist your oversight efforts](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:bkmfse64kqf3yjoqdcs65qto/bafkreiaofwakn3n4aff74rshbrwzdm7qpxvzihuivltuqh45gwb7enxa6q)

“If they follow the same agenda of trying to bring these cases, I think, predictably, they’re going to get the same pushback by both grand juries and juries. You can change the person at the top, but the people who are down in the trenches, they’re left with the same situation.”
