Restore Congress’s subpoena power

DelBene says that, if Democrats regain the House majority, she will help restore Congress’s constitutional authority, including its subpoena power. She says the Republican majority has surrendered that power to Trump and that using it will help hold the administration accountable and provide transparency to the public.

Context: Conditional on Democrats regaining the majority; the passage does not specify how Congress would exercise the power.

In their own words

Once Democrats re-take the majority, we will reassert Congress’s constitutional authority, including the subpoena power
