This resolution directs the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee to take legal action in federal court to enforce a subpoena issued to Pamela J. Bondi on March 17, 2026. The subpoena requires Bondi to provide deposition testimony as part of the committee's investigation into how the federal government enforces sex trafficking laws, with a specific focus on the Department of Justice's handling of documents and files related to Jeffrey Epstein and his associates. The committee chair has 30 days after the resolution's approval to initiate or intervene in court proceedings seeking a declaration that Bondi must comply with the subpoena, along with requesting injunctive relief if necessary. The House Office of General Counsel will represent the committee in court, with authorization to hire additional private attorneys if needed. The committee chair must report back to the House as soon as practicable regarding any legal actions taken under this resolution.
