So, the House Intelligence Committee and the House Oversight Committee both want to call Weisselberg. So, Weisselberg could insist on immunity before he will testify before a House committee like House Oversight or House Intelligence.

Second, regardless of the prosecutorial views, a House Committee immunity takes a two-thirds vote. This vote can be a simple majority, not a two-thirds vote.
