Jim Jordan highlights achievements in letter to Judiciary Committee members.
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan Touts Accomplishments
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) circulated a letter to Republican committee members touting the panel’s accomplishments since the beginning of this Congress.
In a letter obtained by the Washington Examiner, Jordan wrote that the committee has been “among the most active in the House this year,” citing the number of subpoenas they’ve filed, the number of hearings they’ve held, the number of documents they’ve received, and other metrics.

“Over the first seven months of this Congress, we have worked aggressively to expose misconduct in the Executive Branch, fight the politicization of government, and hold the Biden Administration accountable,” Jordan said in the letter. “Our job is far from complete, but we should take stock of what we have accomplished so far and the impact we’ve made for the American people.”
Jordan boasted the committee conducted 58 transcribed interviews and depositions, received over 260,000 pages of documents, sent 308 letters in furtherance of oversight, held 40 total committee and select subcommittee hearings, and issued seven committee and select subcommittee reports.
“Our investigations have yielded real results,” the committee chairman wrote. “We have uncovered new and shocking information about government abuses. The committee’s actions have forced bureaucracies to change their tactics to respect Americans’ civil liberties. We have passed legislation to advance the cause of freedom, protect our fundamental rights, reduce government, and enhance our security.”
Jordan highlighted that the committee had uncovered the FBI’s retaliation against whistleblowers, exposed how the federal government worked to censor users on social media, and passed H.R. 2, the House’s border security legislation.

In the letters, Jordan thanked each committee member for their contribution to the committee and stated how he looks forward to “continuing our work together when the House returns.”
“These successes would not have happened if not for you,” the Ohio congressman wrote. “Thank you for coming prepared to hearings and depositions. Thank you for your tenacity in questioning witnesses and in debating the issues that matter to Americans. Thank you for your persistence in uncovering the truth and holding bad actors accountable. Most of all, thank you for your partnership and commitment.”
