              CALLING FOR THE RELEASE OF THE EPSTEIN FILES

  (Mr. KHANNA asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. KHANNA. Mr. Speaker, I introduced today an amendment demanding 
the full release of the Epstein files. The Speaker's Rules Committee 
should demand a vote tomorrow of every Member of Congress. Yes, we 
should release it or, no, we should not.
  This is a question of: Whose side are we on? Are we on the side of 
protecting the rich and the powerful who have put their thumb on the 
scales of government to suck out millions of dollars, while working-
class Americans suffer, or are we on the side of the people?
  The Attorney General said on her desk was the Epstein file. Now she 
is saying: No, no, nothing to see. Don't release it.
  This is a question of trust. We need to release the Epstein files so 
we can restore government of the people, by the people, and for the 
people. Every Member of Congress tomorrow should be forced to vote on 
this amendment.
