The Employee is prepared to " contradict sworn testimony to Congress by a senior political appointee" and reveal " clear conflicts of interest" The Letter states.
" My client wants to come forward to Congress, " Mr Lytle told Cbs News .
" He's ready to be questioned about what he knows and what he experienced under the proper legal protections. "
The Lawyer added that his client was limited from speaking publicly about any individual's tax filings, and would require protections from Congress in order to reveal any insights.

A federal Grand Jury in Delaware led by a Trump-picked state Attorney General has been examining the younger Biden's taxes and foreign business work since 2018.
Last month, US Attorney General Merrick Garland told a Senate hearing he would not interfere with The Investigation .

On Thursday, White House spokesman Ian Sams said Mr Biden had vowed to allow The Investigation into his son to be conducted " free from any political interference by the White House".
" He has upheld that commitment, " added Mr Sams.
