Attorney General Pam Bondi has been subpoenaed by the House Oversight Committee.

The vote, cast on Thursday, was introduced by Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC), who wants answers on why the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking case files have not been released in compliance with federal law.

Per PBS NewsHour's Lisa Desjardins, all Democrats on the committee backed her resolution, as well as four other Republicans: Reps. Lauren Boebert (R-CO), Scott Perry (R-PA), Tim Burchett (R-TN), and Michael Cloud (R-TX).

In a statement posted to X before the vote, Mace — a sexual assault survivor herself — vowed to get answers for the public from President Donald Trump's top law enforcement official.

"AG Bondi claims the DOJ has released all of the Epstein files. The record is clear: they have not," she wrote. "The Epstein case is one of the greatest cover-ups in American history. His global sex trafficking network is larger than what is being revealed. Three million documents have been released, and we still don't have the full truth. Videos are missing. Audio is missing. Logs are missing. There are millions more documents out there."

"We want to know why the DOJ is more focused on shielding the powerful than delivering justice," added Mace. "The American people deserve answers, victims deserve justice. HOLD. THE. LINE."

North Carolina Senate leader Phil Berger, one of the state's most powerful Republicans, faces a historic political collapse after trailing Rockingham County Sheriff Sam Page by just two votes in Tuesday's primary. Berger held enormous advantages: Trump's endorsement, millions in campaign funding, and establishment Republican backing. He has served as Senate president pro tempore since 2011. Page, raising only $45,000, ran as an anti-establishment outsider, arguing Berger had become too comfortable in Raleigh and too insulated from constituents while serving the donor class. The razor-thin margin virtually guarantees legal challenges. In a year when political establishments face voter backlash, Page's populist message resonated. The winner of this Republican primary in the right-leaning district is expected to win November's general election.
