I’ve had enough waiting on promises. Congress passed the Epstein Files Transparency Act with near-unanimous votes seven months ago. DOJ has slow-walked it since — according to House Judiciary and Oversight Democrats withholding an estimated three million pages and defying a House Oversight subpoena for the rest. A law that nearly every member of Congress voted for should not take a year of stalling to enforce. I’m asking you to publicly commit to three specific things:             1.         Support H.R. 7814, the EPSTEIN Act, in the House, and push companion legislation in the Senate: an independent commission with real subpoena power, with members appointed in equal numbers by Democratic and Republican leadership in both chambers, and including dedicated seats for survivor/victim representatives.             2.         Make the commission’s referrals of credible criminal evidence to state attorneys general mandatory, not discretionary. This president has already shown he will use the pardon pen freely — for the 2020 “fake electors,” for numerous public officials convicted of corruption, and for a sitting member of Congress facing an active bribery trial. Federal-only referrals leave outcomes one signature away from disappearing. State prosecutors are outside the reach of a federal pardon; referrals to them shouldn’t be optional.             3.         If a special counsel is created, require that the appointment go through a genuinely bipartisan process — not handed to one party’s leadership, and not left to the same Department that has already withheld the evidence. A special counsel picked by one side isn’t independent. It’s theater.   I want a specific answer on each of these three points, not another statement about supporting “transparency.” People are watching who actually commits, and who just keeps stalling.
