Upon Congress’ return, Rep. Thomas Massie initiated a discharge petition to force a House vote on the release of files related to Jeffrey Epstein, following up on legislation introduced in July that aimed to mandate the Justice Department to release these documents. This effort, supported by Rep. Ro Khanna, seeks to bypass leadership and compel a vote with 218 signatures. While House leadership added a bill directing the House Oversight Committee to continue its investigation into the Epstein case, Massie criticized this move. The controversy has intensified calls for transparency and prompted a series of actions, including meetings with survivors and planned release of documents, as the public demands greater access to information.
