In a significant move underscoring growing congressional scrutiny into the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, U.S. Representatives Suhas Subramanyam (VA-10) and Robert Garcia (CA-42), Ranking Member of the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, have written to Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, formerly known as Prince Andrew, Duke of York, requesting that he submit to questioning before the House Oversight Committee.

The November 6, 2025, letter, signed by 14 Democratic lawmakers, forms part of the Committee’s ongoing probe into Epstein, his accomplices, and enablers, according to a statement from Congressman Subramanyam’s office.

“It is vital that Andrew cooperates with the ongoing investigation,” said Rep. Subramanyam, citing testimony from Epstein’s victims and new public reporting of leaked documents. “If he is innocent, then he can clear his name. And if not, our investigation will show that, and the victims will receive long overdue justice. The Royal Family’s actions stripping Andrew of his titles show there is more to this story. Ranking Member Garcia and I will not stop pushing for answers and accountability.”

Rep. Garcia echoed the call, emphasizing the need for justice for Epstein’s victims. “Rich and powerful men have evaded justice for far too long. Now, former Prince Andrew has the opportunity to come clean and provide justice for the survivors. Oversight Democrats will not stop fighting for accountability and transparency for survivors of Epstein and his gang of co-conspirators.”

According to the statement, the Oversight Committee will examine allegations of abuse by Mountbatten Windsor and seek further information about Epstein’s operations, network, and associates—particularly in light of the men’s long-documented friendship.

The push for Andrew’s testimony comes amid renewed public and political interest following his decision last month to renounce his royal titles. That announcement followed mounting allegations of his involvement with Epstein and the abuse claims brought by Virginia Giuffre. The move also coincided with the release of House Democratic records identifying Andrew as a passenger on Epstein’s aircraft, along with financial disclosures suggesting Epstein made payments for “massages for Andrew.”

In their letter, led by Reps. Subramanyam and Garcia and joined by 14 other Democratic lawmakers, the members wrote, “It has been publicly reported that your friendship with Mr. Epstein began in 1999 and that you remained close through and after his 2008 conviction for procuring minors for prostitution.”

The letter continues, “It has also been reported that you traveled with Epstein to his New York residence, the Queen’s residence at Balmoral, and to Mr. Epstein’s private island in the U.S. Virgin Islands, where you have been accused of abusing minors. This close relationship with Mr. Epstein, coupled with the recently revealed 2011 email exchange in which you wrote to him ‘we are in this together,’ further confirms our suspicion that you may have valuable information about the crimes committed by Mr. Epstein and his co-conspirators.”

Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi Writes to Secretary Marco Rubio 

On November 7, Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL), a senior member of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, sent a letter to Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Attorney General Pam Bondi urging the Trump administration to pursue testimony from Andrew Mountbatten Windsor in connection with ongoing investigations into Jeffrey Epstein’s network of sexual abuse and trafficking.

In his letter, Congressman Krishnamoorthi wrote that “survivors of Epstein’s crimes—and the American public—deserve full transparency and accountability from all who may have had knowledge of or participation in this criminal enterprise.”

A statement from Congressman Krishnamoorthi’s office, noted that the Congressman emphasized that under the U.S.–U.K. Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty (MLAT), the State and Justice Departments have clear authority to request cooperation from the British government to secure testimony from witnesses abroad. The treaty, he noted, provides for assistance in “the taking of testimony or statements of witnesses” and the “provision of documents, records, and evidence.”

 “The most transparent and credible course of action would be for Mr. Mountbatten Windsor to appear voluntarily and provide full, sworn testimony regarding his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and any knowledge he may possess about others involved,” Congressman Krishnamoorthi wrote. 

He further urged that, should Mountbatten Windsor enter U.S. jurisdiction, the administration “must be prepared to compel his cooperation through lawful subpoena authority or other appropriate mechanisms.”
