Only one Republican in Congress, Rep. Clay Higgins (R-La.,) voted against a bill Tuesday to release files about convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. His case: "I have been a principled 'NO' on this bill from the beginning."
Why it matters: Besides Higgins, the entire House GOP caucus joined President Trump in backing the petition to compel the Justice Department to release all its files on Epstein. The Senate unanimously passed the bill Tuesday evening.
