Dear Members of Congress and President of the United States,

We, the undersigned, urgently call for the immediate passage and enactment of H.R.581, the Epstein Files Transparency Act, introduced by Representatives Thomas Massie (R-KY) and Ro Khanna (D-CA). This bipartisan bill demands the full and unredacted release of all federal documents related to Jeffrey Epstein’s criminal activities, ensuring transparency and justice for victims while holding those involved accountable.

The Jeffrey Epstein case has long been shrouded in secrecy, fueling distrust in our government and institutions. The American people deserve to know the truth about Epstein’s sex trafficking network and the powerful individuals who may have been complicit.

H.R.581 is a critical step toward restoring public trust by mandating the release of all unclassified records within 30 days, without redactions for political or reputational reasons, while protecting victims’ identities and excluding any illicit material.

The Language of H.R.581 – Epstein Files Transparency Act:As introduced in the 119th Congress (2025-2026), H.R.581 requires the Attorney General to:

• Make publicly available, in a searchable and downloadable format, all unclassified records, documents, communications, and investigative materials in the possession of the Department of Justice, including the Federal Bureau of Investigation and United States Attorneys’ Offices, related to Jeffrey Epstein, within 30 days of the bill’s enactment.
• Ensure that such files cannot be withheld, delayed, or redacted due to potential embarrassment, reputational harm, or political sensitivity, including to any government official, public figure, or foreign dignitary.
• Protect the identities of victims and exclude any material constituting child pornography or other illicit content to safeguard privacy and comply with legal standards.

Why This Matters:The Epstein case is not just about one individual—it represents a systemic failure that allowed powerful elites to evade accountability while victims were silenced. Despite years of public outcry, critical documents remain sealed or heavily redacted, perpetuating conspiracy theories and eroding faith in our justice system. Representatives Massie and Khanna, joined by bipartisan co-sponsors like Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert, and Rashida Tlaib, have taken a bold stand to force transparency through a discharge petition if necessary, bypassing any attempts to suppress this vital information.The momentum for H.R.581 is growing, with support from both Republicans and Democrats who recognize that transparency is essential for justice. However, House leadership has resisted bringing this bill to a vote, even sending Congress into early recess to avoid the issue. We cannot allow this obstruction to continue. The victims of Epstein’s crimes deserve justice, and the public deserves the truth—unfiltered and unhidden.

Our Demands:

• Pass H.R.581 Immediately: Bring the Epstein Files Transparency Act to a vote in the House and Senate without delay and ensure its swift passage.
• Support the Discharge Petition: If leadership continues to block a vote, we urge all House members to sign the discharge petition to force consideration of H.R.581, requiring only 218 signatures to succeed.
• Enact Full Transparency:Ensure the Department of Justice complies with H.R.581 by releasing all relevant Epstein files within 30 days, with no redactions for political reasons and full protection for victims’ privacy.
• Hold the Powerful Accountable: Use the released documents to pursue justice against any individuals implicated in Epstein’s crimes, regardless of their status or influence.

Join Us in Demanding Truth and Justice:

By signing this petition, you stand with the American people in demanding transparency, accountability, and justice in the Jeffrey Epstein case. Let’s send a clear message to Congress and the President: the time for secrecy is over. Pass H.R.581 and release the Epstein files now!

Sincerely,

Concerned Citizens of the Nation
