House Democrats subpoenaed Department of Energy Secretary Rick Perry Thursday as they continue their impeachment inquiry targeting President Donald Trump.

The House Intelligence, Foreign Affairs and Oversight committee is demanding Perry provide  documents related to the impeachment inquiry by Oct. 18. Democrats want evidence that Perry was involved in trying to push Ukraine into investigating former Vice President Joe Biden.

“Recently, public reports have raised questions about any role you may have played in conveying or reinforcing the President’s stark message to the Ukrainian President,” Reps. Adam Schiff of California and Elijah Cummings of Maryland wrote in a letter to Perry.
