The decision could head off a planned vote in the Republican-led House of Representatives to hold the two prominent Democrats in contempt, which could lead to criminal charges.

The House ​Oversight Committee recommended last week that they ⁠be held in contempt for refusing to testify about their relationship with Epstein. The Clintons had offered ​to cooperate with the ⁠panel but had refused to appear in person, saying the investigation was a partisan exercise aimed at protecting Republican President Donald ‌Trump.

“They told you under oath what ‌they know, but you don’t care. But the former President and ‍former Secretary of State will be there. They look forward to setting a precedent that applies ‍to everyone,” the Clintons’ deputy chief of staff, Angel Urena, said in a post on social media.

House Speaker Mike Johnson welcomed the news but did not say whether the chamber would drop its planned contempt vote.

“That’s a good development,” he said. “We ⁠expect everyone to comply with Congress’s subpoenas.”

Bill Clinton flew on Epstein’s plane ​several times in the early 2000s after leaving ⁠office. He has expressed regret about the relationship and said he knew nothing about Epstein’s criminal activity.
