Massie moves to force vote on releasing Epstein files
UNITED STATES, JUL 16 – The bipartisan Epstein Files Transparency Act requires the Department of Justice to release all unclassified Epstein-related documents within 30 days, backed by 212 Democrats and six Republicans.

- Last week, Democrats and Republicans pressed Attorney General Pam Bondi to release the files, prompting bipartisan pressure over Epstein investigations.
- Massie’s resolution mandates making all unclassified Epstein files searchable and bars redactions for political or reputational reasons, according to the measure.
- Amid GOP infighting, Greene supports the discharge petition, highlighting divisions over the Trump administration’s Epstein investigation handling.
- Upon hitting the majority, the House will be compelled to vote on the Epstein files legislation, though Jake Sherman notes it still faces long odds.
