House Republicans Block Democrat-Led Effort to Force Release of Epstein Files to the Public — Here Are the Five Republicans Who Voted Against Transparency
by Jim Hᴏft Jul. 15, 2025 8:40 am

In a jaw-dropping move late Monday, House Republicans once again slammed the door shut on transparency, voting 7‑5 in the Rules Committee to block Rep. Ro Khanna’s amendment that would have forced Attorney General Pam Bondi and the Department of Justice to publish all Epstein‑related files publicly.

Last week, Rep. Ro Khanna (D‑CA) announced he will introduce an amendment on Tuesday, forcing a House vote to release the full trove of Epstein-related files to the public.

The same party that spent years stonewalling investigations, blocking the release of Epstein’s client list, and downplaying his vast connections to the global elite is now suddenly pretending to care about transparency.

Jeffrey Epstein was a monster, but his real ties were to the Democrat elite. Bill Clinton flew on Epstein’s Lolita Express at least 26 times, rubbing elbows with the pedophile financier while jet-setting around the world.

“Why are the Epstein files still hidden? Who are the rich & powerful being protected?” Khanna wrote on Saturday.

“On Tuesday, I’m introducing an amendment to force a vote demanding the FULL Epstein files be released to the public. The Speaker must call a vote & put every Congress member on record.”

He continued, “Will the House allow a vote on Tuesday on the Khanna Amendment demanding the full release of the Epstein files?”

In a 7–5 late-night Monday vote, House Republicans on the Rules Committee shut down a Democratic-led amendment spearheaded by Rep. Ro Khanna (D‑CA).

The measure would have forced Attorney General Pam Bondi’s Department of Justice to publish all Jeffrey Epstein–related documents—including flight logs, communications, and purported client lists—on a publicly accessible website within 30 days.

Only one brave Republican, Rep. Ralph Norman (R‑S.C.), defied party pressure and sided with Democrats, while Texas Rep. Chip Roy wisely abstained.

Here are the names of the U.S. Representatives who voted “No” to releasing the Epstein files:

    Virginia Foxx (R-NC)
    Nick Langworthy (R-NY)
    Austin Scott (R-GA)
    Morgan Griffith (R-VA)
    Brian Jack (R-GA)
    Michelle Fischbach (R-MN)
    Erin Houchin (R-IN)

Not familiar with any of the names. None.  My first inclination was to think that they may have some involvement with Epstein or at least familiar with the truth.

Nah... Smells like leadership throwing 'nobody' votes to bury the problem. They can probably afford the expended moral capital, or don't need it because they are outside of the limelight.
