Republican-led committees to consider holding Hunter Biden in contempt of Congress
CBSN
Washington — House Republicans on two committees are set to gather Wednesday to move forward with an effort to punish Hunter Biden, President Biden's son, for refusing to comply with a congressional subpoena, another step in GOP lawmakers' impeachment inquiry into the president.
The Oversight and Judiciary Committees are poised to meet to vote on resolutions recommending the full House hold Hunter Biden in criminal contempt of Congress. If the House then takes up and approves the contempt resolutions, the Justice Department would decide whether to prosecute the president's son.
In a report released Monday, Republicans criticized Hunter Biden for "flagrant defiance" of subpoenas from the Oversight and Judiciary panels, which were issued as part of the House GOP's ongoing impeachment inquiry into the president and sought a closed-door deposition from his son.
