FULTON COUNTY, Ga. - House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) has subpoenaed Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis over allegations that she misused federal funds.
In the subpoena and cover letter, both obtained by FOX 5, Jordan claims that the District Attorney's Office has "failed to comply voluntarily" with the committee's requests for documents connected to the office's receipt and use of U.S. Department of Justice grants.
The subpoena comes a few weeks after Jordan announced an investigation into whether Willis misused funds in the hiring and payment of Nathan Wade, the special prosecutor working on the county's election investigation into former President Donald Trump and his co-defendants.
In the previous letter, Wade is accused of receiving a substantial amount of money from Fulton County, which he reportedly spent "extravagantly on lavish vacations" with Willis.
Jordan told FOX 5 that he had concerns that prosecutors comingled funds while investigating Trump and the other defendants.
"You’re using federal funds to do this," he said. "They get $14.6 million in grant money."

Jordan cites in the new letter to Willis a report from the Washington Free Beacon alleging that Willis fired an employee who tried to stop the Fulton County District Attorney's Office from using a federal grant for the creation of a Center of Youth Empowerment and Gang Prevention for travel, computers and "swag."
