Article Summary
Two House committees have voted to hold Hunter Biden, the president’s son, in contempt of Congress. The votes come after Mr. Biden appeared unannounced on Capitol Hill but refused to sit for a private deposition in the impeachment inquiry against President Biden. House Republicans have accused Mr. Biden of failing to comply with their subpoena, while Mr. Biden has repeatedly offered to testify publicly. If the House approves the contempt charge, it will be up to the U.S. attorney in Washington, D.C. to decide whether to pursue a criminal case against Mr. Biden.
