The House Concurrent Resolution No. 12, 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. The resolution 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. Despite previous promises from the administration to disclose comprehensive information about the case, including a list of Epstein's associates and evidence, the resolution notes that the Justice Department has recently stated that no new information will be released, leading to public skepticism about the administration's transparency and integrity.

The resolution emphasizes the need for accountability and clarity surrounding Epstein's case, particularly in light of the scandal surrounding his previous lenient sentencing and the non-prosecution agreement he secured in 2008. It expresses concern over the lack of forthcoming information and the implications this has for public trust in government officials. The Texas Legislature urges the U.S. Department of Justice and the Trump administration to fulfill their commitments to transparency by releasing the complete Epstein files and directs the Texas Secretary of State to send official copies of the resolution to President Trump and Attorney General Bondi.
