The Democratic congressman co-sponsoring bipartisan legislation to force a vote to release the Justice Departments files on Jeffrey Epstein told The Independent that they plan to hold the vote as soon as the newest member of Congress takes her seat.
And that could be as soon as Monday.
On Tuesday, Arizonas 7th district held a special election, which Adelita Grijalva won to replace her father, the late Raúl Grijalva. Grijalva said that she plans to immediately sign a discharge petition to force the vote.
Reps. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) and Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) filed a discharge petition in July to force the release of files related to Epstein. If a discharge petition receives the signature of a majority of members, they can force a vote without the consent of leadership.
