Congress moves to hold Blinken in contempt over subpoena

During a recent government committee meeting, proceedings were postponed regarding a roll call vote on an amendment proposed by Representative Meeks. The amendment seeks to recommend that the House of Representatives hold Secretary of State Antony Blinken in contempt of Congress due to his noncompliance with a subpoena issued by the Committee on Foreign Affairs. The committee's decision to delay the vote was made by voice vote, indicating a lack of consensus on the matter at this time. The implications of this amendment could significantly impact the relationship between Congress and the executive branch, particularly concerning accountability and oversight.
