House Judiciary Chairman Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio and House Oversight Committee Chairman Rep. James Comer of Kentucky sent a letter Tuesday to Amos Hochstein, Deputy Assistant to the President & Senior Adviser for Energy and Investment, requesting he sit down for a transcribed interview.

The Daily Caller first obtained a copy of the letter to Hochstein, requesting he sit down for a transcribed interview with the committees regarding his previous work with Blue Star Strategies, an
international lobbying firm recommended by Hunter Biden to the Ukrainian energy company Burisma. Blue Star failed to disclose around $480,000 in payments from the firm, according to testimony from IRS whistleblower Joseph Ziegler.

In the letter, the lawmakers say they want to hear more about his work with Blue Star and the Biden family and prior conversations with Hunter Biden and then-Vice President Biden about Hunter’s service on the board of Burisma.

“We believe that you possess relevant information that will both meaningfully advance the impeachment inquiry and assist the Committees in crafting potential legislation, including legislative reforms to FARA,” the letter reads.

The letter also mentions that around the same time Blue Star and Burisma connected in October 2015, Hochstein was serving as Special Envoy and Coordinator for International Energy Affairs at the State Department. In that role, he reportedly brought concerns to then-Vice President Biden about “potential conflicts of interest” arising from Hunter Biden’s position on the board of Burisma.

In a 2020 interview with Senate investigators, Hochstein “declined” to comment on advice of counsel about “the substance” of his conversation with then-Vice President Biden.
