Congress can subpoena them for legislative purposes. This is the argument they used to get Trump’s tax returns. Congress wants to write laws forbidding politicians, bureaucrats and their immediate families from doing business deals influenced by (or that influence) public policy. They have a right to the records based on their own precedent.
