Congress Clears the Way for Epstein Files to Be Released
The Epstein files can now be released to the public after Congress approved the Epstein Transparency Act. Both chambers passed the bill with overwhelming support.
House Passes the Bill With Near-Unanimous Support
Lawmakers voted on November 18 and delivered a rare bipartisan victory. The bill won almost unanimous support in the House, with only one lawmaker—GOP Rep. Clay Higgins—voting against it.
The measure orders the release of the Justice Department’s files on the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. After passing 427–1, the bill moved quickly to the Senate.
