When is the Epstein files vote - and why does Trump now want them released?
Published: 11/18/2025

President Donald Trump has urged Republicans in Congress to vote for the release of more files related to Jeffrey Epstein, reversing his previous opposition. The House of Representatives is expected to vote on a measure to make all Epstein files public within 30 days. The vote is likely to pass in the House, but faces uncertain prospects in the Senate. Victims of Epstein and his co-conspirators are advocating for the release of the files, which could also include information on Ghislaine Maxwell and government officials linked to the case.
