The House Oversight and Accountability Committee, chaired by Rep. James Comer, is pushing forward with a resolution to hold FBI Director Christopher Wray in contempt of Congress for failing to hand over a document detailing unconfirmed allegations of a bribery scheme involving then-Vice President Joe Biden. The document, known as a FD-1023 form, allegedly describes a criminal scheme involving Biden and a foreign national relating to the exchange of money for policy decisions. If the resolution passes, it would be the first time in history that a sitting FBI director has been held in contempt of Congress.

House Oversight Chair James Comer and Sen. Chuck Grassley have subpoenaed the FBI for a FD-1023 form that they claim contains information about an alleged criminal scheme involving then-Vice President Biden. FBI Director Christopher Wray has offered to allow them to view the document at FBI headquarters, but Comer and Grassley are pushing for the document to be in their office. The FBI has declined to provide the document, prompting Comer to move forward with a vote to hold Wray in criminal contempt of Congress.
