“The government is still hiding millions of files about Jeffrey Epstein, even after a law required their release. I introduced a new bill to force the Department of Justice to release them. I want the government to investigate and prosecute the people who helped Epstein commit these crimes.”
“Mr. Speaker, it has been a year since the President signed the Epstein Files Transparency Act, and the government continues to withhold over 3 million files. That is why we have introduced the Epstein Files Transparency Act II, to bring the fight to the State courts, accountability to the Department of Justice, and closure for survivors. We want perpetrators of these crimes to be investigated and prosecuted, men like: Jes Staley; Leon Black; Les Wexner; David Copperfield; Lapo Elkann; Tom Pritzker; Glenn Dubin; Frederic Fekkai; Eduardo Teodorani; Jean-Luc Brunel, conveniently dead by suicide in prison; Daniel Siad, recently discovered dead in Paris; Ramsey Elkholy; and Prince Andrew, who committed sex crimes in the United States, too; and women like Leslie Groff, not a victim, who conspired with Epstein to traffic other women. Perhaps hearing these names will shame the Department of Justice into delivering justice.”
