Overview
- Reps. Thomas Massie and Ro Khanna are collecting signatures for a discharge petition to compel a House vote requiring public release of federal Epstein files.
- Several Republicans, including Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, have signed despite a White House message that backing the effort would be treated as a hostile act.
- At a press conference, survivors said they are confidentially compiling names of alleged abusers, and attorney Bradley Edwards said he has assembled a list from client discussions.
- Greene publicly offered to read those names on the House floor under Speech or Debate Clause protections that shield members from defamation suits for legislative acts.
- The FBI said its review found no incriminating client list or credible blackmail evidence, and victims at the event said they had not seen or heard President Trump do anything inappropriate related to Epstein.
