United States Representative Ro Khanna addressed the House of Representatives floor in Washington D.C. this week to publicly identify six influential figures whose names were withheld from the Department of Justice’s recent release of Jeffrey Epstein’s files, alleging a concerted effort to shield elite and powerful men from public scrutiny. Khanna, a prominent Democrat from California, utilized his floor time to name these individuals after reviewing unredacted documents, arguing that the lack of transparency undermines the pursuit of justice for Epstein’s victims. The move comes as part of his broader push for the Epstein Transparency Act, a legislative effort aimed at exposing the full extent of the late financier's sex-trafficking network and those who facilitated or benefited from it. During a subsequent interview with PBS News Hour’s Geoff Bennett, Rep. Khanna detailed his frustrations with the Department of Justice’s handling of the sensitive records. He suggested that the redactions were not made for legitimate privacy concerns of victims, but rather to prevent political and social blowback for high-profile figures. By naming the six individuals on the House floor—where members of Congress enjoy legal immunity for their statements—Khanna sought to bypass the barriers he believes have been erected by institutional gatekeepers within the legal system. The debate over the Epstein files continues to haunt the American political landscape, as the public demands a full accounting of how a convicted sex offender maintained deep ties with global leaders in business, politics, and science for decades. Khanna emphasized that the legislative branch has a duty to provide oversight, particularly when there is a perception that the judicial process has been compromised to protect the wealthy. He noted that the disclosure of these names is a necessary step toward dismantling the culture of impunity that allowed Epstein to operate his criminal enterprise for so long. Moving forward, the Epstein Transparency Act seeks to mandate the release of all documents related to the investigation into Epstein and his associates. Proponents of the bill argue that the Department of Justice has been overly cautious, if not intentionally obstructive, in its disclosure process. As more information reaches the public domain, the pressure on law enforcement agencies to justify their previous secrecy continues to mount, with Khanna vowing to continue his advocacy for total institutional transparency.
