The House of Representatives is set to hold a vote on releasing the Epstein files after a two-month hiatus prevented the newly elected Democratic Congresswoman Adelita Grijalva of Arizona from assuming her role and signing a discharge petition.
After her swearing in on Wednesday, Grijalva became the final signature on the petition, forcing Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson to hold the vote.
Four Republicans and all 213 Democrats in the House signed the petition. Johnson told reporters on Wednesday that he would bring a bill to the floor next week that would require the Justice Department to release all its case files on Jeffrey Epstein.
