House Oversight Committee Chairman Rep. James Comer (R-KY) on Friday sent a letter to Bill and Hillary Clinton’s attorney ordering them to appear for depositions related to a probe into Jeffrey Epstein. “House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) sent a letter to Bill and Hillary Clinton’s attorney, David Kendall, emphasizing that while the Committee remains engaged in good-faith negotiations, the Clintons are required to comply with lawful subpoenas and appear for scheduled in-person depositions,” the House Oversight Committee stated in a release. “The House Oversight Committee is continuing its review of the federal government’s investigation into Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. In July, Democrats and Republicans on this Committee approved a motion to issue subpoenas to Bill and Hillary Clinton. The Committee has since worked in good faith to schedule in-person depositions, but further delays are unacceptable,” Comer said. “Given their history with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, any attempt by the Clintons to avoid sitting for a deposition would be in defiance of lawful subpoenas and grounds to initiate contempt of Congress proceedings. The Committee looks forward to confirming their appearance and remains committed to delivering transparency and accountability for the survivors of Epstein’s heinous crimes and for the American people,” he continued. Democrats and Republicans approved subpoenas in July for Bill and Hillary Clinton. After good-faith efforts to schedule depositions, further delays aren’t acceptable. Given their Epstein ties, avoiding Congress would be in defiance of subpoenas & warrant contempt proceedings. pic.twitter.com/mxxgq3GX7v — Rep.

On July 23, 2025, the Subcommittee on Federal Law Enforcement of the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform approved a motion by voice vote directing the Committee to authorize and issue deposition subpoenas for Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton. The Committee may use the results of this investigation to inform legislative solutions to improve federal efforts to combat sex trafficking and reform the use of non-prosecution agreements and/or plea agreements in sex-crime investigations. “Given the admission that your clients possess some relevant information, your position amounts to a demand that the Committee forgo in-person testimony potentially relevant to its legislative oversight,” the letter read. “Additionally, your suggestion that your clients’ testimony would not be relevant to the stated purposes of the Committee’s investigation because the events in question took place outside of the Clintons’ respective official duties, misses the Committee’s point,” the letter continued. “It is precisely the fact President Clinton and Secretary Clinton each maintained relationships with Mr. Epstein and Ms. Maxwell in their personal capacities as private citizens that is of interest to the Committee,” it added. Bill, Hillary Clinton told to appear for depositions in Jeffrey Epstein probe https://t.co/8LHceZRxhE pic.twitter.com/KPS2fzXJOG — New York Post (@nypost) November 21, 2025 The New York Post shared: Experts have suggested that the former president and former secretary of state may be able to invoke executive privilege to spurn the deposition, though it’s unclear whether that would extend to “their personal capacities.” Epstein’s madam Ghislaine Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-year sentence for sex trafficking dozens of girls with the deceased pedophile, attended Chelsea Clinton’s wedding in 2010. After leaving the White House, Bill Clinton flew more than a dozen times on Epstein’s private jet, later dubbed the “Lolita Express.” Hillary Clinton received donations for a Senate campaign from the financier before his run-ins with the law in the mid-2000s. In 2008, Epstein pleaded guilty in Florida to soliciting a minor for prostitution and had to register as a sex offender — yet continued to foster relationships with influential business leaders, politicians and even British royalty. Epstein was hit with federal sex trafficking charges in July 2019 and found dead in his Manhattan jail cell on Aug. 10, 2019, while awaiting trial, in what was later determined to be a suicide.
