On Tuesday, the lawmakers demanded that Garland turn over records, including transcripts, notes and video files related to the investigation into President Biden’s willful mishandling of classified information.

“The Oversight and Judiciary Committees, in coordination with the Ways and Means Committee, are investigating whether sufficient grounds exist to draft articles of impeachment against President Biden for consideration by the full House,” they wrote. “The Committees are concerned that President Biden may have retained sensitive documents related to specific countries involving his family’s foreign business dealings.”

Additionally, they are also seeking the classified documents referenced in Hur’s report which relate to then-Vice President Biden’s December 2015 phone call with the then-Ukrainian prime minister.

The deadline for providing the transcripts is March 7th, the same day Biden is set to give his State of The Union address.
