                   DEADLINE TO RELEASE EPSTEIN FILES

  (Mr. KHANNA asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. KHANNA. Mr. Speaker, tomorrow at midnight is the deadline for Pam 
Bondi to release the Epstein files. That is what   Thomas Massie's and 
my bill calls for. It passed this body 427-1, passed the Senate 100-0, 
and the President signed it. Now, three Federal judges have ordered the 
release of all of these files from Maxwell's and Epstein's grand jury.
  Here is the reality. Any Justice Department official who does not 
comply with this law will be subject to prosecution for obstruction of 
justice. If Pam Bondi does not comply with the law, she will be held 
either in inherent contempt of Congress or subject to impeachment.
  We will not rest until the law is complied with and justice is 
served.
