Washington, D.C. – After Hunter Biden’s attorney issued a press release attempting to change the terms of a congressionally issued subpoena requiring his client to appear for a deposition, Chairman Jason Smith (MO-08) issued the following statement:
“Hunter Biden does not get to dictate how Congress conducts our constitutional role in oversight of his father’s administration and investigating the President’s involvement in the Biden family influence peddling business. The congressional subpoena he received was not a suggestion, and he is required to sit for a deposition on December 13th. I expect he will have the opportunity to testify in a public setting in the future. The American people are rightly concerned by what we have learned throughout the course of our investigation. Chairman Comer, Jordan, and I will continue to demand transparency and the truth as we work to get to the bottom of the Biden family influence peddling scheme.”
