Members of Congress who pushed to release the files related to Jeffrey Epstein told The Independent that the Department of Justice is skirting the letter of the law it passed to force the release of the files.
In November, Reps. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) and Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) filed a discharge petition to force the House to vote on their legislation requiring the Department of Justice to release all files related to Epstein. That vote passed almost unanimously and it passed by unanimous consent in the Senate.
