Pamela,
ICYMI: My colleagues and I successfully forced the House Oversight Committee to subpoena the Epstein files last week.
As a survivor of sexual assault, I do not arrive at this issue lightly. I think about my own experience every single day. I am here to advocate for those victimized by Epstein and by whoever else is being protected in those hidden files.
Mike Johnson and Trump's allies tried to avoid voting on the release of the files by completely shutting down the House. They wanted to prevent the truth from coming out. But thanks to our work, we're now closer than ever to getting the healing, transparency, and accountability that the survivors of this case deserve.
Now, the Department of Justice must answer and deliver the unreacted files to the House Oversight Committee.
This is a pivotal moment, and we need to show that there's strong, public support for this. Will you add your name if you agree that the Department of Justice and House Republicans must comply with this subpoena?
I have always said that sunlight is the best disinfectant. And in the words of Chairman Elijah Cummings, the role of our committee is "to be in efficient and effective pursuit of the truth." The people deserve to know why the Epstein files are still hidden and who is being protected.
To those who see this as political gamesmanship, it is not.
To those who say that this is a distraction, and are insisting that there's better things to be working on: No.
This is about the healing, transparency, and accountability that survivors deserve.
I'm going to stay on this for as long as it takes. If you're with me, add your name to show you support this subpoena passing, and expect the Department of Justice and House Republicans to follow the law.
In solidarity,
Ayanna
