The House of Representatives will be voting next Wednesday on whether to hold former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in contempt over their refusal to testify about their relationship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, three people told Politico.
The Rules Committee will meet at 4 p.m. Monday to consider the resolutions for the floor.
Last week, the House Oversight Committee voted to advance the resolutions, with nine Democrats joining all Republicans in voting in favor after the Clintons announced they would defy a subpoena.
Epstein, a New York financier, was friends with the former president, who flew on his private plane.
If the House approves the contempt resolutions, House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer, R-Ky., said the matter would be referred to the Department of Justice.
