The motion to subpoena Bondi passed by a vote of 24-19. Five Republicans voted for it, including Nancy Mace of South Carolina, who put the motion forward. The Republicans voting with Mace and the Democrats were: Tim Burchett of Tennessee, Lauren Boebert of Colorado, Michael Cloud of Texas and Scott Perry of Pennsylvania.

The Justice Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The department acknowledged Wednesday that tens of thousands of Epstein files are "offline" as it deals with redaction and privacy issues that it hopes to have addressed by the end of the week.

"AG Bondi claims the DOJ has released all of the Epstein files. The record is clear: they have not," Mace wrote on X.
