The resolution, introduced by Representative Gonzlez of Dallas, calls for the release of the complete Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) files related to deceased sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. It highlights the ongoing demand from various public figures, including current and former officials in the Trump administration, for transparency regarding Epstein's criminal activities, which included sex trafficking of minors. The resolution notes that despite promises from the Trump administration to provide a full accounting of the Epstein case, including a list of associates and evidence, the release of information has been inadequate, leading to public skepticism about the administration's transparency and integrity.
The resolution expresses concern over the lack of new information following the initial investigations and the subsequent claims by the Justice Department that no "client list" exists. It emphasizes the need for accountability and transparency from the U.S. Department of Justice and the Trump administration regarding Epstein's case. The Texas Legislature urges the release of the complete files to address the growing questions surrounding Epstein's criminal activities and the individuals involved. Official copies of the resolution are to be forwarded to President Trump and Attorney General Bondi.
