Reps. Massie, Khanna plan September press conference with Epstein victims
Mr. Massie and Mr. Khanna will also use the event to discuss the status of their discharge petition to force a House floor vote on their bill requiring the Justice Department to release the Epstein files.
The discharge petition will ripen for signatures in September. If 218 House members sign it, Mr. Massie and Mr. Khanna can force a vote on their bill against GOP leaders’ wishes. However, GOP leaders can counter by trying to table the measure or refer it to committee.
All 212 House Democrats and “more than six” Republicans are expected to sign the petition, Mr. Khanna told The Washington Times last month.
