On Wednesday, survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s abuse, some of whom were speaking out for the first time, gathered on Capitol Hill with Reps. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.), Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), and Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) to rally behind the members’ push to release the Epstein Files.

Khanna and Massie are leading an effort to force a House vote on their bill to compel the Justice Department to release all the files. Democrats widely support the effort, but the coalition needs at least two more Republicans to get behind it.

Republicans, meanwhile, passed a largely symbolic bill Wednesday that expresses support for the already-ongoing House Oversight Committee investigation into Jeffrey Epstein. On Tuesday, the Committee released thousands of files related to Epstein – most of which were already in the public domain.
