WASHINGTON (AP) — House Republicans are halting plans to hold Hunter Biden in contempt of Congress this week for defying a congressional subpoena. They cited ongoing negotiations with Hunter Biden’s attorney over a possible deposition. A contempt resolution against Hunter Biden was scheduled to move through a procedural hearing before it was canceled Tuesday “to give the attorneys additional time to reach an agreement.” That is according to a spokesperson for the House Oversight Committee. The move comes days after an attorney for President Joe Biden’s son indicated a willingness to cooperate with Republicans’ ongoing impeachment inquiry following months of defiance.
