Washington: US President Donald Trump signed the bill to release files related to the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein, the convicted sex offender who died in federal custody in 2019.

In a Truth Social Post, Trump wrote, “I have just signed the bill to release the Epstein Files! As everyone knows, I asked Speaker of the House Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune to pass this Bill in the House and Senate, respectively. Because of this request, the votes were almost unanimous in favour of passage.”

He also added that the Department of Justice has “already turned over close to fifty thousand pages of documents to Congress.”

Earlier, the US House of Representatives voted 427-1 on Tuesday to pass the bill, and later the Senate approved it through unanimous consent.
