Rep. Thomas Massie said Thursday that his effort to force a vote on the Justice Department’s Jeffrey Epstein files is gaining steam.
“We’ll get to 218” signatures, Massie told reporters of the discharge petition he is leading along with Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna. The measure would force a vote on the House floor to compel the Justice Department to release all the documents related to Epstein’s case.
There are currently 215 signatures, primarily Democrats. Along with Massie, three Republicans have signed on to the measure: Reps. Nancy Mace, Lauren Boebert and Marjorie Taylor Greene.
