seeking to investigate his investigation, which his counsel has called an undue intrusion into New York affairs.
The Judiciary Committee said in a statement on Thursday that the GOP-led House may consider "legislative reforms that would, among other things, prevent state or local politically motivated prosecutions of current or former presidents." Bragg responded to the subpoena in a statement, saying Republicans continue "to attempt to undermine an active investigation and ongoing criminal case with an unprecedented campaign of harassment and intimidation."
"These elected officials would better serve their constituents and the country, and fulfill their oath of office, by doing their jobs in Congress and not intruding on the sovereignty of the state of New York by interfering in an ongoing criminal matter in state court," Bragg said.
