Senate Advances Bill to Release Epstein Files, Sending to Trump for Signature
Washington – The U.S. Senate is poised to approve a bill mandating the release of documents related to Jeffrey epstein, following near-unanimous support in the House of Representatives. the legislation cleared a crucial procedural hurdle on November 19, 2025, and, barring objection from a Senator, will be sent to President Trump for his signature within hours.
This move comes after years of resistance to full transparency surrounding Epstein’s crimes and alleged network of associates.The bill’s passage marks a important victory for victims of Epstein’s abuse and those seeking accountability, potentially revealing further details about the financier’s decades-long pattern of sex trafficking and the involvement of prominent figures. If signed by President Trump,the law will compel the release of previously withheld files pertaining to the investigation.
The House of Representatives overwhelmingly approved the bill with onyl one dissenting vote, preceded by a moving press conference held near the Capitol.Abuse survivors directly appealed to President Trump to allow the release of the documents, recounting years of suffering caused by Epstein’s crimes. Investigators have documented Epstein’s abuse of underage girls and young women, and his alleged trafficking of them to individuals with public profiles.
Recent disclosures of emails suggest President trump was aware of allegations concerning Epstein. Epstein was found dead in a New York prison cell in 2019, with authorities ruling his death a suicide. The impending release of these files could shed light on the extent of Epstein’s network and any potential complicity among those connected to him.
