Re: Response to Subpoena Request to Hunter Biden

Dear Chairman Comer:

We write again to communicate the choice1 we made following your October 31, 2023,
statement on The Benny Show:

“We’re in the downhill phase of this investigation now because we have so many
documents, and we can bring these people in for depositions or committee hearings,
whichever they choose, . . . .”2

This choice also reflects your September 13, 2023, statement on Newsmax:

“Hunter Biden is more than welcome to come in front of the committee . . . he’s
invited today. We will drop everything.”3

And your November 8, 2023, statement in your cover letter addressed to me:

“Given your client’s willingness to address this investigation publicly up to this


point, we would expect him to be willing to testify before Congress.”4

Contrary to your recent public statements, Mr. Biden is not seeking special treatment. That other witnesses have
opted for different choices in how they provided the Committee with testimony is simply a different choice than Mr.
Biden is making.

Nov. 8, 2023, Letter from Chairmen James Comer and Jim Jordan to Abbe D. Lowell, Esq., at 6 (emphases added).

As indicated in my November 28, 2023, letter, Mr. Biden has offered to appear at a hearing
on the December 13, 2023, date you have reserved, or another date this month, to answer any
question pertinent and relevant to the subject matter stated in your November 8, 2023, letter. He
is making this choice because the Committee has demonstrated time and again it uses closed-door
sessions to manipulate, even distort, the facts and misinform the American public—a hearing
would ensure transparency and truth in these proceedings.

We look forward to working out the schedule.

Sincerely,

Abbe David Lowell


Counsel for Robert Hunter Biden
