Hoyer Statement Announcing House Contempt Vote

WASHINGTON, DC – House Majority Leader Steny H. Hoyer (MD) released the following statement this evening: 

“Next Tuesday, I will bring a resolution to the House Floor forcing Attorney General Barr and former White House Counsel McGahn to comply with Congressional subpoenas that have been duly issued by the House Judiciary Committee.  The resolution will authorize the Judiciary Committee to pursue civil action to seek enforcement of its subpoenas in federal court.  It also authorizes House Committees that have issued subpoenas as part of their oversight and investigation responsibilities to seek civil enforcement of those subpoenas when they are ignored.  This Administration’s systematic refusal to provide Congress with answers and cooperate with Congressional subpoenas is the biggest cover-up in American history, and Congress has a responsibility to provide oversight on behalf of the American people.”
