Markwayne Mullin: “we all want transparency and for credible information on the Epstein case to be made public so that the American people…”

“we all want transparency and for credible information on the Epstein case to be made public so that the American people can decide. The Trump administration has already said they are committed to releasing all available files. Last week, President Trump directed AG Bondi to produce any and all permanent grand jury testimony in the Epstein case. My colleague from Arizona's resolution tells the FBI and the DOJ how to do their job. My resolution would echo the seriousness of the directive from the President and the DOJ to the courts and calls immediately to unseal all materials. When combined with what our House colleagues have done, this resolution moves forward providing justice to the victims and transparency to the American people. Mr. President, as I said before, we want transparency, but the courts control the grand jury; the judges that oversee the courts control the grand jury. We in this body can have resolutions back and forth and suggest that it be done, but truthfully, the judges have to do it. AG Bondi and the President have both already called upon the judges to release this information. What my resolution is simply saying is that we agree with the President, we agree with AG Bondi on the judges and calling upon the judges to release it.”
