January 31, 2026 The Honorable Todd Blanche Deputy Attorney General U.S. Department of Justice 950 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20530 Dear Deputy Attorney General Blanche: I am writing to request that the Department of Justice (DOJ) immediately arrange for Members and staff of the House Committee on the Judiciary to review the complete unredacted Epstein files next week. Yesterday, the Department released a tranche of documents related to disgraced sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and claims to have fully satisfied its obligations under the Epstein Files Transparency Act (EFTA).1 In your news conference announcing the materials’ release, you said: “If any Member of Congress wishes to review any portions of the response of production in any unredacted form, they’re welcome to make arrangements with the Department to do so, and we’re happy to do that.”2 The Democratic Members of the House Judiciary Committee do wish to review the files. Our review is particularly urgent because DOJ itself claims to have identified over 6 million potentially responsive pages, but after releasing only about half of them-including over 200,000 pages that DOJ redacted or withheld-says strangely that it has fully complied with the Act. We seek to ensure that your redactions comply with the Act’s requirement that materials be withheld only in narrow circumstances, such as protecting victims’ personally identifiable information, and not on the basis of “embarrassment, reputational harm, or political sensitivity, including to any government official, public figure, or foreign dignitary.”3 Moreover, in light of Attorney General Pam Bondi’s appearance in a hearing before the Committee on February 11, it is vital that Committee Members and staff have an opportunity to review the unredacted files in 1 Letter from Pamela J. Bondi, Att’y Gen., & Todd Blanche, Deputy Att’y Gen., U.S. Dep’t of Justice, to Congress (Jan. 30, 2026), https://www.justice.gov/letter-to-

Donald Trump is mentioned over 1,000 times across the 3.5 million pages released under the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Content includes news clippings, witness interview notes, FBI file entries, and unverified allegations. FBI interview notes reference one victim stating Maxwell once 'presented her' to Trump at a party. An email chain shows Epstein contacting a former Trump resort executive about 'the girl in the new papers.' The DOJ stated that unverified allegations against Trump in the files were considered not credible. Deputy AG Todd Blanche stated 'We did not protect President Trump' in the releases.
