A source familiar told the Washington Examiner that the oversight panel is still negotiating with the Clintons over standard deposition terms, including whether the interviews would be transcribed, filmed depositions in February with no time limit, pursuant to the committee’s investigation.

The Clintons initially refused to comply with bipartisan subpoenas for interviews from the oversight committee.

A full house vote on holding the two in contempt was scheduled for Monday.
