Senate passes Epstein Files bill, demanding release of unredacted documents within 120 days.

The U.S. Senate has unanimously passed the Epstein Files Transparency Act, sending it to President Donald Trump for signature after the House approved it 427-1. The bill, backed by bipartisan lawmakers, mandates the Justice Department to release unredacted documents related to Jeffrey Epstein within 120 days, excluding those involving national security or ongoing investigations. It aims to fulfill long-standing public demand for transparency surrounding Epstein’s case, including records from his 2008 plea deal. The legislation advanced through a discharge petition after leadership delays and was passed in the Senate via unanimous consent, bypassing debate.
