Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) have co-sponsored a discharge petition to bypass House leadership and compel a full vote on releasing the complete Jeffrey Epstein files.
The proposed resolution — which Massie submitted alongside Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) — is titled the “Epstein Files Transparency Act” and would require the Department of Justice to declassify and release all Epstein-related documents, including investigative records, communications, flight logs, visitor lists, sealed agreements, and any information involving known or suspected co-conspirators.
“We all deserve to know what’s in the Epstein files, who’s implicated, and how deep this corruption goes. Americans were promised justice and transparency,” Rep. Massie wrote on X.
“We’re introducing a discharge petition to force a vote in the US House of Representatives on releasing the COMPLETE files.”
Massie emphasized the urgency and importance of this procedural tool.
“A discharge petition is a procedural tool for bypassing leadership. In 7 days we can start collecting signatures. At 218 signatures, the House must vote on our bill requiring a full release of the Epstein files. If your Representative won’t sign the discharge petition, ask why.”
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene announced her full support: “I am proudly cosponsoring and will sign the discharge petition,” she wrote. “I will never protect pedophiles or the elites and their circles.”

The bill mandates that the Attorney General publish Epstein-related records in a searchable and downloadable format within 30 days, including:
- All DOJ, FBI, and U.S. Attorney Office communications relating to Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell
- Flight logs, surveillance footage, photos, videos, emails, calendars
- Settlement agreements and grand jury transcripts
- Records of any Epstein-related death or detention investigations
Now the question is: Will your representative sign it? Or will they protect the powerful once again?
