Not surprising at all the league would not respond. In the St Louis law suit several owners refused to turn over subpoenaed information until after they were fined for not complying.

They would have to make a complening argument of what Snyder did was actually in volition of state/federal laws. They can't just kick someone out just they no longer like the guy. The last thing NFL wants is Snyder to lawyer up and sue the league.

I'm guessing there's a legal and morals clause in franchise agreement that could force ouster/sale.
As I said, he'd have to be found guilty of allegations.

Zero reason why he should testify and I wouldn't if I were him.
Furthermore, Congress should not be involved in SH claims. That is the purvey of the EEOC- that's literally their job, not Congress'

Standig: Roger Goodell insists Dan Snyder isn't running the Commanders day-to-day. Why?
Snyder's day-to-day involvement with the Commanders has long been an open secret. So why does Goodell keep saying Snyder remains uninvolved?
Paywall. Goodell claims Tonya has been handling day to day operations, but Dan has been having regular meetings with GM and coach.
Does not look good
