Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick is set to give a transcribed interview behind closed doors about his interactions with sex offender Jeffrey Epstein to a House panel on Wednesday morning.
Lutnick is just one of several high-profile people to be asked to speak in a non-public session to the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee about Epstein on the heels of the Department of Justice’s release of documents about the predator.
Former Attorney General Pam Bondi, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, and billionaire Leon Black are among those scheduled to give interviews to the panel in the coming weeks.
Lutnick’s interview, which will not be under oath, is scheduled to begin at 11 a.m. ET. The interview will not be recorded on video.
Lutnick was a New York City neighbor of Epstein, who killed himself in jail in August 2019 after his arrest on federal child sex trafficking charges.
