Burchett, by contrast, said the victims “made very clear” they didn’t want the broader disclosures promoted by Massie, and therefore he won’t endorse the petition.

“They’re the files that the girls have said they’re concerned about [DOJ] releasing, because they have some explicit details about them,” Burchett said Wednesday morning.


Anyone who watched the press conference knows that is a blatant lie. Every single one of the victims pleaded to get the legislation passed. The victims need to collectively call out Burchett (and any other Republican using the same fake excuse) by name that he is lying his ass off.
