WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Banking group Citibank was subpoenaed on Thursday by Republican-led U.S. House of Representatives Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan for a congressional probe into data sharing by banks with the FBI.
Panels in the Republican-led chamber are probing major banks sharing Americans’ private financial data with the FBI without legal process for transactions made in the Washington, D.C., area around Jan. 6, 2021, Jordan said in a statement on Thursday.
