Survivors of Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking crimes will return to the Capitol to hold another press conference demanding Congress force a vote to release the Epstein files.

On Wednesday, Oct. 8, survivors will stand alongside Republican Rep. Thomas Massie and Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna to support the pair’s bipartisan bill, the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, one of the few Republican supporters of the bill, will be in attendance as well.

Epstein survivors last held a press conference with the congresspeople on Sept. 3—during which time Trump had a fighter jet fly over their words and drown them out.

During that press conference, survivor Chauntae Davies alleged that Donald Trump, 79, was very close with Epstein, to the point that the late sex offender kept a portrait of Trump on his desk. “Jeffrey and Ghislaine were always very boastful about their friends, their famous and powerful friends, and his biggest brag, forever, was that he was very good friends with Donald Trump,” she said.
