The House of Representatives voted by a wide margin to require the Department of Justice (DOJ) to turn over documents connected to Jeffrey Epstein.
The vote followed months of sustained pressure from Democrats and from the bill’s bipartisan sponsors, Reps. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., and Ro Khanna, D-Calif.
A number of Epstein’s survivors attended the vote from the House chamber.
Republican leaders in the House had expressed lingering reservations about the proposal until just hours before it came to the floor.
Despite those concerns, Speaker Mike Johnson and most House Republicans ultimately joined Democrats in directing the DOJ to disclose its Epstein records, with demands for openness — and former President Donald Trump’s support for the measure — leaving them little room to oppose it.
