                       JUSTICE SHOULD BE REQUIRED

  (Mr. COHEN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. COHEN. Mr. Speaker, I am here to talk about two incidents that 
shame me as a Member of this House and as an American citizen.
  Today, President Trump signed the Epstein documents release bill. 
Lots of women were up here who were victims of Jeffrey Epstein's sexual 
felonies, and they celebrated when the House passed it and the Senate 
passed it, but it is clear today that classified documents therein will 
not be released and documents that might relate to an ongoing 
investigation which President Trump authorized going after Bill 
Clinton, Larry Summers, and others on the Democratic side which are 
false and improper investigations where Ms. Bondi said there was 
nothing there, will not allow for material to be disclosed.
  The Senate said the House shouldn't get involved with the $500,000 
that each Senator should get for simply having a phone call noted--not 
listened to, not documented, but noted. It is $500,000 for nine 
Senators.
  That money should go to the Epstein victims. Truth spoken. Justice 
should be required.
