Juliegrace Brufke reports,
The House voted largely along party lines to hold former senior Trump aides Peter Navarro and Dan Scavino in criminal contempt of Congress for refusing to comply with the Jan. 6 select committee’s subpoenas on Wednesday.
The referral will now move to the Department of Justice for potential prosecution.
The House previously voted to hold former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows and Trump ally Steve Bannon in contempt of Congress last year.
So far the Department of Justice has only filed charges against Bannon and demanded that the former senior advisor turn over all records and documentation requested by the panel.
