When will the Epstein files be released now that the Senate agreed to make them public? [View all]
(BBC) The US Congress has approved a measure to compel the US Justice Department to release all files pertaining to its investigation into convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
The bipartisan bill, which calls for the release of the files "in a searchable and downloadable format" within 30 days, passed the House of Representatives on Tuesday and the Senate agreed to pass it upon arrival.
It next needs the sign-off of President Donald Trump. The president urged Republicans in Congress on Monday to vote for the release - reversing course after his administration declined to make them public.
He had faced pushback from Epstein victims and a potential revolt from Republicans who would would vote to force the files' release.
