WASHINGTON — The House Judiciary Committee plans to prepare a resolution to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress for refusing to hand over the audio of President Joe Biden’s interview with former special counsel Robert Hur, a source familiar with the committee’s plans confirms to NBC News. The committee is currently planning to hold a 'markup' for the contempt resolution on May 16, after which the panel could vote to refer the issue to the full House for a vote.
Despite having access to the full transcript, the committee believes they need the audio because it may shed insight into Hur’s assessment that Biden’s age and lack of memory played a role in his decision to not press charges against the president.
