The House Rules Committee is set to vote Tuesday at noon on the markup on whether or not Attorney General Merrick Garland will be held in contempt of Congress.
Garland is being considered to be held in contempt due to withholding audio recordings of special counsel Robert Hur’s interview with President Joe Biden over classified documents. A transcript of the interview has been released. In the document, Hur described Biden as a “well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory”.

Two House committees, the House Oversight and House Judiciary Committee, previously voted along party-lines to advance a report recommending he be held in contempt.
If passed in the House Rules Committee, the committee with throw the matter to the entire House to a vote on whether Garland will be held in contempt. It is unclear if the House in its entirety would have enough votes with it’s very thin, Republican majority.
