House lawmakers passed the resolution along partisan lines in a vote of 221-212 on Wednesday. The resolution directs the House Ways and Means, Judiciary and Oversight committees to continue their investigations into alleged foreign influence peddling and bribery by the Biden family.
Formalizing the inquiry grants the panels stronger subpoena enforcement power, House Majority Leader Steve Scalise said in a statement on the resolution earlier this week.
