The Trump administration has been criticized for failing to release files about convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, a former friend of President Trump.

  • A petition in the House of Representatives to force a vote to release the so-called Jeffrey Epstein files secured the last signature required to trigger that action.

  • Rep. Adelita Grilalva, D-Ariz., provided the 218th signature needed to approve the petition shortly after she was sworn in as a House member, after weeks of delay.
