In a major bipartisan move, President Donald Trump has signed legislation requiring the U.S. Department of Justice to release long-sealed files related to Jeffrey Epstein within 30 days. Passed overwhelmingly in the House (427–1) and unanimously in the Senate, the law mandates disclosure while allowing limited redactions for victim protection and active investigations. It explicitly bars withholding information to protect political figures or reputations. Trump, who earlier resisted such disclosure, said the release will reveal “the truth” about high-profile associations linked to the Epstein network. DOJ officials have begun preparing documents for public release.
