The House sets its rules.
“Can a House committee on its own issue a valid and enforceable subpoena? Yes, it can. House rules permit that and the Constitution provides that the House — just like the Senate — writes its own rules.”
“The particular rule in question — the committee power to issue subpoenas without a full House vote — came about when Republicans controlled the House.”
“All of this leads to the question: Is the impeachment process fair? The short answer is: The impeachment process is whatever the House says it is.”
