The House GOP has released the text of a resolution to formalize the House impeachment inquiry of President Joe Biden.
House Republicans released on Dec. 7 the text of a resolution to formalize the House impeachment inquiry of President Joe Biden.
" said it three months ago, but we think it always helps if the full House of Representatives on the record, a majority of that body, has said this is an official impeachment inquiry," Mr. Jordan said, noting that he expects court challenges to the impeachment inquiry as well.
House Republicans have already issued subpoenas to members of the Biden family, including Hunter Biden.
Hunter Biden has been subpoenaed to appear at a closed-door interview with House investigators next week, but his lawyer responded to the notice by offering the president's son testify in a public hearing instead. Top Republicans are now threatening to hold Hunter Biden in contempt of Congress if he does not show up at the closed-door deposition on Dec. 13.
The majority will give the minority some sway during the impeachment inquiry-in an apparent attempt to avoid repeating what the House GOP lamented as unequal treatment during the Trump impeachment inquiry, such as not being allowed to have a hearing held by the minority.
The White House also issued an 18-page memo disputing the charges and stated that Republicans are pursuing a "Baseless impeachment stunt" despite providing no proof of misconduct by President Biden in a continuous effort to defame the president.
