U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES COMMITTEE ON OVERSIGHT AND GOVERNMENT REFORM SUBPOENA COVER LETTERS (CONSOLIDATED) DATED AUGUST 5, 2025 This record is a consolidated set of cover letters issued by Chairman James Comer alongside deposition subpoenas to multiple witnesses, including former senior Department of Justice and FBI officials and former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary Hillary Clinton. The letters are procedural transmittals that accompany subpoena commands and define expected testimony logistics. Each letter references the Committee's continuing investigation into federal handling of Epstein-related records and accountability questions surrounding disclosure, investigative decisions, and institutional response. The cover letters identify dates for deposition appearances, routes for communication through counsel, and instructions for any claims of privilege or objections. The letters are not identical in recipient details, but they share core elements: statement of committee authority; notification that testimony is compelled; scheduling terms; and warning that noncompliance may be referred for enforcement action. They also route recipients to Committee staff contacts for logistical issues and documentary coordination. As congressional records, these letters are notable because they document simultaneous compulsory testimony demands to both former executive-branch officials and politically prominent private individuals. That scope indicates the Committee's stated intent to assemble a broad factual chronology rather than rely on a narrow witness set. For archival purposes, this item should be read as a process document that maps the witness list and scheduling structure of the August 2025 phase of House oversight activity. It captures the formal notice component of subpoena practice and supports later verification of who was called, on what basis, and when.

The Epstein Case in 2025

In February 2025, the Justice Department released "Epstein Files: Phase 1", including a flight-log exhibit, a redacted contact book and an evidence list, much of it previously public. After a July 2025 DOJ-FBI memo said no further disclosure was warranted, Reps. Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie introduced the Epstein Files Transparency Act. The House passed it 427-1 on November 18, 2025, it became law on November 19, and it required the Justice Department to publish its Epstein records within 30 days; the first production followed on December 19, 2025.
