The Jeffrey Epstein saga is creating anarchy in the House in the second consecutive week, as the danger house of Democrats, who forces politically difficult votes, is motivating the GOP leadership to toss many of its plans for the week.
This problem started as the MPs returned to Washington on Monday, when the House Rules Committee, which takes action for the bills, met the biden-era rules to re-rescue the votes to make T-ups and on an immigration bill.
But the Democrats, who forced Republican in several politically difficult votes on the Epstein case last week, threatened to do so again. He planned to stage a vote on bringing laws on the floor that would force the release of Epstein files.
Instead of facing those votes, according to many members of the Republican panel, not only leaving any vote-according to many members of the mainle-left the house with a business without a floor in the past, which is beyond the non-converter suspension bill, two-three support is required to pass fast-track measures.
“Democrats maintain all these amendments. They want to create Epstein – and, we are all for transparency, and we are going to do so, but what they want to do is grandeur. He said that they will stay there all night, we will stay there all night. He said that the committee was not expected to return, and the house will deal with only suspension votes.
Rape. Jim McGawn (Mass.), The top Democrat of the Niyam Samiti confirmed that the panel would not re -connect for the rest of the week.
“We are doing,” McGawn told The Hill. “A rule is not reporting, we are for the night, we are doing for the week. … There are some issues going on within the Republican Conference, I think around Epstein accessories, that they may not be under control. So we will probably suspend for the remaining weeks.”
This is the second time that the so -called Epstein files saga in several weeks has failed the plans of GOP leadership for the house floor.
The Republican of the Rules Committee tried to address the Epstein case after the public was prolonged after rejecting the Democratic Amendment last week, an attempt that delayed action on a bill that was foreign aid for public broadcasting and foreign aid to cord the government’s efficiency.
Members of GOP on the panel came with a nonbinding resolution for the release of more files and Teed it for floor actionBut gop is leadership No plans to bring the matter for votes,
Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) The first Monday said that the House would not vote on the law before the August holiday-which is going to start after votes on Thursday.
Instead, Johnson said that he wanted to give the administration time to work on the matter.
Johnson said at Capital on Monday, “What would I say about Epstein files here: There is no daylight on the maximum transparency between the House Republican, House and the President.” “He has said that he wants all reliable files related to Epstein to be released. He asked the Attorney General to request the grand jury files of the court. All this is still in the process.”
He said, “I believe that we need the administration what he is doing, and if further the action of the Congress is necessary or appropriate, we will look at it,” he said. “But I don’t think we are right now because we agree with the President.”
A source said it was suggested by Democrats to lead a headache on forced votes to lead from placing a floor vote at nonbining resolution, and it was not a favorite option by leadership.
The dilemma for Republican came to a meeting with leadership and other top Sadan leaders on Monday, two sources told The Hill. Rape. Erin Howchin (R-Ind.), Who sit on the Niyam Samiti, raised concerns to vote on the Democratic-LED modification-there is a significant difference from the GOP-crown forest in the Penal Meeting and instead said a separate measure for the voting at Republican resolution or instead a separate measure for transparency, said a source.
A Competitive Epstein Remedy From reps. Thomas Massey (R-K.) and Ro Khanna (D-Calif.)-One, if both are passed by chambers and signed by the president, there are more teeth if the epochs are complicated as Epstein is dynamic.
Massey and Khanna have promised to vote on their Epstein-relief bill through the discharge petition process, if they can receive 218 household members to sign. If all the Democrats in the House and all the Republicans who have already co-resolved, they do so, they can return the GOP leadership to a corner.
Due to procedural rules, no vote will be at least until at least after the return of the house from the August holiday in September – by the time many Republicans hope that Epstein Fifty will be dead.
But Massi – a binder carrying, which reads “The Epstein Files: Phase 2”, which is in the context of the notorious “Phase 1”, which was distributed by Attorney General Palm Bandi, distributed to Maga’s influencers earlier this year – hopefully there will be a hunger for that forced vote.
“It’s not going away,” Massey said on Monday.
The House Majority Leader Steve Scallice (R-La.) Reduced the importance of Logazam, saying that this week the House could still vote on suspension and focus on committee meetings and hearing.
“We still have a lot of work to do a lot of work,” he told reporters.
