Dear Mr. Neece,
Thank you for contacting me regarding the Epstein files. I always appreciate hearing from my constituents on the issues most important to them, and I rely on your input to best serve the Inland Empire.
Throughout his campaign, President Trump made a clear promise: To publicly release files containing the names of individuals associated with the crimes of alleged human trafficker Jeffery Epstein. Now while in office, it has become apparent the President has no interest in releasing the files and ensuring justice for the victims of Epstein and his associates.
Why the President has reversed course and impeded the release of the files is unclear. Many have speculated the longstanding friendship between the President and Jeffery Epstein is a possible cause. Credible reports have surfaced indicating the President’s name was found within the files, with more information indicating the FBI tasked agents with redacting his name wherever it appeared.
Regardless of the reason for the delay, the American public deserve to know the truth about the horrific crimes Jeffrey Epstein committed and those who enabled him. House Republicans have voted to effectively block a debate on whether the Department of Justice should release the Epstein files to the public. Despite their opposition, I was proud to sign onto a bipartisan discharge petition which would immediately force a vote to release the files. No one in the government should be trying to keep the facts on these child predators hidden. Please know I will continue to fight for the justice these victims have long deserved.
If you or someone you know has experienced sexual violence, resources are available here.
Thank you for passing along your concerns regarding the Epstein Files. If you would like to receive periodic updates on issues affecting the Inland Empire, please follow me on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and Bluesky.
