Arizona Congresswoman Yassamin Ansari is calling for the release of the full, unredacted Epstein files.
Congress required the Justice Department to make all files available on Dec. 19, but it has taken a piecemeal approach to releasing them.
In a post on social media, the Arizona Democrat called the redacted files the most egregious cover up in American history, adding that Americans are tired of powerful, wealthy men escaping accountability.

“They have had the entirety of this year to prepare for this," Ansari told CNN. "The attorney general went in front of the American people and said that she had these files on her desk reviewed and ready to be released and they are still not complying and still breaking the law.”
Ansari and other Democrats say some of the recently released documents raise serious questions about the relationship between Epstein and President Donald Trump. They believe Epstein’s co-conspirators are being protected.
