House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) is requesting voluntary testimony from seven additional people as part of the committee’s investigation into the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Those Comer sent letters to include Microsoft founder Bill Gates, Gateway, Inc. founder Ted Waitt and private equity investor Leon Black. All three billionaires’s names appear in the documents released by the Justice Department under the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

He asked them to sit for in-person transcribed interviews.

“The Oversight Committee is continuing to seek the truth for survivors & all Americans,” Comer wrote on X.

Waitt is the ex-boyfriend of Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell, who was convicted on child sex trafficking charges.

Comer proposed interview dates of April 16 for Waitt, May 13 for Black and May 19 for Gates in letters sent to the three billionaires on Tuesday.

Additionally, former Democratic White House employees Kathryn Ruemmler and Doug Band were asked to provide testimony on April 21 and May 5, respectively.

Ruemmler, who resigned from her role as Goldman Sachs’s top lawyer this week over her ties to Epstein, served as White House counsel in the Obama administration. Band was a key adviser to former President Clinton.

Comer also requested voluntary interviews with Epstein assistants Lesley Groff and Sarah Kellen in early June.
