House Oversight Committee ranking member Jamie Raskin (D-MD) sent a letter to Chairman James Comer (R-KY) calling on him to compel Jared Kushner, the former president’s son-in-law, to produce documents related to his business ventures in Saudi Arabia.

Last June, when Democrats controlled the House, the Oversight Committee launched an investigation into Kushner and his business dealings overseas, particularly with the Saudi sovereign wealth fund. Just six months after he left the White House, Kushner’s investment firm, A Fin Management, or Affinity, reportedly received a $2 billion investment from the wealth fund, known as the Saudi Public Investment Fund, or PIF, which is closely aligned with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

In light of this, on Thursday, Raskin sent Comer a follow-up letter asking him to “pursue a serious and objective investigation by issuing a subpoena to Affinity and requiring the firm to comply with my February 15, 2023, request for documents regarding its receipt of billions of dollars from Gulf monarchies.”
