Dear Mr Neece:
Thank you for reaching out regarding the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files. I appreciate your outreach and concern about this matter.
On September 2, 2025, I spent nearly 2.5 hours hearing directly from some of the survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s abuse. Their stories were horrific, with most of these women being exploited at the ages of 13, 14, and 15.
I signed the Discharge Petition 9, a procedural mechanism that would allow House Democrats to bypass Republican obstruction and force a vote on H.Res. 581. This resolution, formally known as the Epstein Files Transparency Act, would require the U.S. Attorney General to make public all available unclassified records, documents, communications, and investigative materials in the possession of the U.S. Department of Justice, including those of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the U.S. Attorneys’ Offices.
Please be assured of my full support for the release of the Epstein files. This is not a partisan issue, nor should it be treated as one. I will continue to work with my colleagues in Congress to ensure that transparency and justice are delivered.
I invite you to please stay in touch with me on Facebook, X (formerly known as Twitter), BlueSky, or Instagram, and subscribe to my newsletter for periodic updates. Thank you again for writing to me, and be well.
Sincerely,
Kweisi Mfume
Member of Congress
