On November fourteenth, a significant development unfolded in the Jeffrey Epstein case. The House of Representatives gathered enough signatures to force a vote on releasing all government files related to the accused sex trafficker. This move comes after a discharge petition reached the necessary two hundred eighteen signatures, setting the stage for a vote next week. Arizona Democratic Representative Adelita Grijalva became the two hundred eighteenth signatory, with Democrats contributing two hundred fourteen signatures and four Republicans also joining the effort. Republican Representative Thomas Massie of Kentucky has been a vocal advocate for releasing these files. Some representatives faced pressure regarding their involvement, but many stood firm, emphasizing their commitment to transparency. The upcoming vote in the House will be a crucial moment for transparency, with more Republicans expected to vote in favor of releasing the files once they are forced to go on record.
