There is a bipartisan bill now that is very close to having the votes to pass - The Epstein Files Transparency Act. The measure would give Attorney General Pam Bondi 30 days to release nearly all unclassified files related to the federal investigation into child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, his one-time girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell, and their known associates – likely including President Trump. Victims of Epstein gathered recently at the Capitol and demanded that the U.S. Congress pass legislation forcing the release of all unclassified records related to the disgraced financier held by Trump's regime. Trump has called the women's effort "a hoax." "This is about ending secrecy wherever abuse of power takes root," said Anouska De Georgiou, a former model and actress who was one of about 10 self-described Epstein victims who spoke about her experience at a press conference outside the U.S. Capitol. "The only reason that I am here is because it feels like the people that matter in this country finally care what we have to say," said Marina Lacerda, an immigrant from Brazil who met Epstein when she was 14 after a friend told her she could make hundreds of dollars for massaging an older man. "Survivors need protection, resources and legal support. If this Congress is serious about justice, then let this moment also affirm your commitment to provide victims with the legal aid they need," De Georgiou said at the press conference organized by Republican Representatives Thomas Massie of Kentucky and Democrat Ro Khanna of California, who are trying to force a vote on the bill. Even right-wing fringe Trump-loving MAGA members of Congress like Lauren Boebert and Marjorie Taylor Greene are urging their colleagues to vote for the bill and expose these sex traffickers. "If they want to give me a list, I will walk in that Capitol on the House floor and I'll say every damn name that abused these women," Greene said. "I can do that for them and I'd be proud to do it. It's a scary thing to name names. But I will tell you, I'm not afraid to name names." Please stand with survivors, not Trump and those protecting sex traffickers. Pass this bill now.
