Pursuant to the provisions of H. Res. 672, H. Res. 668 is considered passed House. (consideration: CR H3780; text: CR H3780)

Public would get access to unclassified records from the Jeffrey Epstein investigation.

This bill would formally direct a House committee to continue its investigation into the Jeffrey Epstein case, including his death and sex-trafficking rings. It would also require the committee to make many unclassified records from the investigation public. This means people would gain access to documents that were previously not released, with strict rules about what can and cannot be kept secret.

What Would Change

Today, the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform may be investigating the Epstein case, but there is no formal House order directing its continuation or mandating the public release of specific unclassified documents. If this bill becomes law, the committee would be formally directed to continue its investigation, its existing subpoenas would be explicitly supported, and its chair would be required to publicly release a broad range of unclassified records related to Jeffrey Epstein, with clear rules for what can and cannot be kept secret and why.
