Massie moves to force vote on releasing Epstein files

UNITED STATES, JUL 16 – The bipartisan effort led by Massie and Khanna uses a rare discharge petition to compel a House vote demanding the Department of Justice release all Epstein-related files within 30 days.

  • On Tuesday, Representatives Thomas Massie and Ro Khanna filed a discharge petition in the U.S. House of Representatives, aiming to force a vote on releasing all Jeffrey Epstein files.
  • Following a Justice Department memo, which stated Epstein died by suicide and no `client list` was uncovered, many—including the MAGA base—responded with skepticism.
  • With 218 signatories needed, Politico reported that they seldom prevail as many members hesitate to defy leadership.
  • So far, six Republicans have signed on to the petition, and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene wrote, `I am proudly cosponsoring and will sign the discharge petition`.
  • Pending the vote, the files must be made searchable and downloadable within 30 days, and upon 218 signatures, the House will be required to vote on the measure.
