Former US President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will testify before the US House of Representatives as part of an ongoing investigation into the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, a spokesman for the former president has confirmed.
The decision is expected to avert a potential vote in the House to hold the Clintons in contempt, as lawmakers press ahead with efforts to examine the political and institutional failures linked to the Epstein scandal.
The Epstein affair continues to loom over Washington, drawing in some of the most prominent figures in US politics and underscoring the sharp partisan divisions that have shaped the handling of the case.
The investigation has gained renewed momentum following the Justice Department’s release last week of what it described as the final batch of documents, photographs and videos related to Epstein.
The disclosures have intensified political debate and added fresh pressure on President Donald Trump, as lawmakers and the public demand greater accountability over the long-running scandal.
