I voted to release the Epstein files because the American people deserve the truth. From day one, I’ve been clear: anyone who abuses a child should face the ultimate punishment. I have pushed from the very beginning for these files to be made public. House Republicans have led this investigation at every turn. We have released more than 60,000 pages of documents, made the Barr deposition public, and issued subpoenas to the Justice Department, Bill and Hillary Clinton, the Epstein Estate, and Ghislaine Maxwell. Democrats spent years obstructing transparency and protecting those within their own ranks who maintained relationships with a convicted sex offender. Their conduct, including exploiting victims’ trauma to distract from their reckless 43-day government shutdown, has been disgraceful. My vote today was straightforward: no more secrets, no more excuses, and no more protecting predators. The American people will finally see the truth and accountability will follow.” ### | 1 | 2026-04-04T05:28:40Z | 2026-04-04T05:30:10Z |
