The Congressional Committee wants to ask Comey questions about his decision to exonerate Hillary Clinton of criminal liability for her use of a private email account and server while held the role of US secretary of state.
Comey testified before a Senate Committee shortly after US President Donald Trump fired him in 2017, but refused to appear before a House committee unless that hearing also took place in public because Comey did not want his comments leaked or distorted due to a lack of context.
