House expected to vote on bill forcing release of Jeffrey Epstein files

  • On Tuesday, the U.S. House of Representatives will vote on whether to release Department of Justice files about convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, with procedural votes starting at 10 a.m. ET.
  • A bipartisan discharge petition led by Rep. Ro Khanna and Rep. Thomas Massie reached 218 signatures to force a House vote after months of pressure following the July 7 DOJ memo.
  • The House Oversight Committee's release shows more than 20,000 pages including emails where Epstein said President Donald Trump `knew about the girls.`, with victims' names redacted.
  • President Donald Trump said he would sign a bill if passed, and with 400 votes the Senate would face pressure, though a Department of Justice probe could block the release.
  • More than three-quarters of Americans want the files released, and House Republicans' vote marks their first major break with President Donald Trump this year, who backed it last-minute on Sunday.
