The Epoch Times has reviewed the subpoena.

The subpoena comes after a March 10 letter to Khan from Jordan, who chairs the House Judiciary Committee, and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), ranking member of the Senate Commerce Committee.

The two sought documents related to the FTC's intensified scrutiny of Twitter after it was acquired by Musk.

"We reached out to Committee staff to begin discussions about this request, and we provided a letter on March 27," said Jeanne Bumpus of the FTC in March 29 testimony before the Judiciary Committee's oversight subcommittee regarding her agency's responsiveness.

Bumpus testified that the FTC would keep working with the House on its many requests for information "while ensuring the FTC can continue to protect the independence, integrity, and effectiveness of the Commission's law enforcement efforts and core agency processes.

"To date, your voluntary compliance has been woefully insufficient," Jordan wrote in his April 12 cover letter for the subpoena, which requests documents from Khan and the FTC by April 26.

"The FTC respects the important role of Congressional oversight. We have made multiple offers to brief Chairman Jordan's staff on our investigation into Twitter. Those are standing offers made prior to this entirely unnecessary subpoena," FTC spokesperson Douglas Farrar said in response to the subpoena.
