Reps. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) and Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) are planning to bring survivors of abuse by convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and his convicted co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell to the Capitol.
Khanna and Massie announced the survivors will join them at a press conference the morning of Sept. 3, the day the House returns from August recess.
According to an advisory from the lawmakers, several of the survivors will speak publicly about their abuse for the first time. Attorneys for the survivors, Brad Edwards and Brittany Henderson, will also be present.
The survivors deserve justice and Americans deserve transparency, Massie said in a post on the social platform X.
