Freshman Democratic lawmaker Joe Neguse told his constituents it was 'likely' the House Judiciary Committee would investigate whether Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh committed perjury during his confirmation hearings last fall.

'There's no question [Kavanaugh] committed perjury during the confirmation hearings and so forth,' Neguse said in a video sent out by the conservative group America Rising. 'I think the Judiciary Committee is likely to take that up.'

Neguse did not point to a specific statement from Kavanaugh, noted Fox News, which reported on the video of his Q&A.

Rep. Joe Neguse told his constituents it was 'likely' his committee would investigate whether Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh committed perjury in his confirmation hearings

Democrats said before the election they would investigate Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh if they won control of the House

The House Judiciary Committee did not respond to DailyMail.com's inquiry about whether it plans to hold hearings on Kavanaugh's testimony.

House Democrats are using their investigatory power to bring members of Trump's circle before their respective committees.

The president's former personal attorney Michael Cohen will testify before the House Oversight and Reform Committee on Feb. 7.

And acting attorney general Matthew Whittaker will testify before the House Judiciary Committee on Feb. 8.

Oversight power was an argument Democrats made during the 2018 midterm election, when they successfully won back control of the lower chamber of Congress.

Rep. Jerry Nadler, the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, said in October his panel would look into accusations of sexual misconduct and perjury against Kavanaugh if they won control of the House.

'It is not something we are eager to do,' Nadler told The New York Times. 'But the Senate having failed to do its proper constitutionally mandated job of advise and consent, we are going to have to do something to provide a check and balance, to protect the rule of law and to protect the legitimacy of one of our most important institutions.'

Kavanaugh's confirmation was almost derailed when he was accused by Christine Blasey Ford of sexual assault stemming from an incident at a high school party back in the 1980s.

President Donald Trump's nominee denied the allegations.

Both he and Blasey Ford testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee on the matter.

'I did not drink beer to the point of blacking out, and I never sexually assaulted anyone. There is a bright line between drinking beer, which I gladly do and which I fully embrace, and sexually assaulting someone, which is a violent crime,' Kavanaugh said in his fiery opening statement to the committee during his confirmation process.

Kavanaugh ended his opening statement with dramatic words: 'I swear today under oath before the Senate and the nation, before my family and god I am innocent of this charge.'
