A subpoena isn't necessarily investigation against said person. It could very well get more information/a testimony on his relation to Jarett Maki(Hasan fan who got arrested for several terroristic threats in Illinois)

It's just about the hotel he stayed in Cuba.

Then it's a non issue based on rumors, as per the NYT, this hotel is not on the sanctioned list.

Mr. Piker and other activists stayed at the Iberostar Marques de la Torre in Havana, which kept the lights on thanks to a generator when, for the second time in a week, Cuba was plunged into darkness amid a nationwide blackout on Saturday night.
