Congress approves bill to release Epstein files that will head to Trump's desk

Congress approves bill to release Epstein files for Trump's approval, following public pressure. The House and Senate overwhelming voted to order the US Justice Department to disclose its records on Jeffrey Epstein, with only one objection. The move comes after Trump's recent support for the release, contradicting previous opposition, amid scrutiny of his ties to Epstein in recently released documents. If signed by Trump, the bill mandates the release of unclassified materials related to Epstein and Maxwell within 30 days, allowing some information to be withheld to protect ongoing investigations or victim identities.
