'It is noteworthy that just four days before this indictment, you launched a new campaign fundraising website that highlighted your investigation into President Trump,' the Judiciary Committee chairman wrote in a letter to Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.
The Democratic district attorney is up for re-election in 2024.
Her campaign website does not directly highlight her indictment of Trump. It touts her work to fight gang violence, keep young people out of the criminal justice system and anti-corruption efforts.
But under an 'in the news' section, her campaign website features a New York Times report about the prosecutor that is headlined: 'In Atlanta, a Local Prosecutor Takes on Murder, Street Gangs and a President.'

The GOP-led investigation was unveiled on the day Trump is set to hand himself over to authorities in Georgia.
Trump went after Willis during an interview posted to X, formerly Twitter, on the night before he surrenders, which garnered over 150 million views at the same time as the first GOP presidential debate was broadcast.
'Even the Democrats say you can't bring these cases, you have no case,' he told Tucker Carlson.
'The district attorney, Fani, Fani Willis, in Atlanta, she's getting killed,' he went on - in terms reminiscent of his rhetoric in the lead-up to the January 6th Capitol riot.
He'll be booked at the Fulton County jail on Thursday evening, where he'll be fingerprinted and have a mugshot taken, before he's released on $200,000 bail.
The letter raised suspicions over the two-and-a-half year timeline of the indictment.
Willis' investigation was first launched in February 2021, but the former president was not indicted until the campaign for the GOP presidential nomination is 'in full swing,' Jordan wrote.
'Moreover, you have requested the trial in this matter begin March 4, 2024, the day before Super Tuesday and eight days before the Georgia presidential primary.'

Jordan also requested any documents related to communications between the DA's office and the Biden administration.
The Georgia indictment accused Trump and 18 of his co-defendants of pressuring local election officials, making false claims of voter fraud, and drawing up a plan to recruit fake electors to certify the election for trump instead of Biden.
In his letter Jordan also cited grand jury forewoman Emily Kohrs' comments where she 'bragged' about 'the prospect of subpoenaing President Trump.'
Comment: It's mind-boggling that this space cadet was made grand jury forewoman:
Kohrs launched herself into one of the nation's most famous forepersons, making the rounds in media while the investigation was ongoing. During one televised interview with MSNBC she giggled as she said she 'kind of wanted' to subpoena Trump just to get the chance to swear him in.
She said she 'kind of just thought that would be an awesome moment.'
'The House Committee on the Judiciary thus may investigate whether federal law enforcement agencies or officials were involved in your investigation or indictment,' Jordan wrote.
'It may also investigate whether DOJ raised any concerns about how your investigation impacted federal interests, and if so, whether and how those concerns were resolved.'
Jordan gave Willis until September 7 to comply with his demands, though it's not clear if she will. Jordan could then potentially move to launch a subpoena.
All the while the democrats and their economy will implode.
