Republican and Democratic lawmakers on Wednesday called on Attorney General Pam Bondi for an urgent sit-down over unreleased information related to Jeffrey Epstein's files.

A letter sent to the attorney general on Wednesday told Bondi she had until Friday to give "new information" that the administration cited as the reason for a new investigation on the late financier and convicted sex offender, and "could hinder the full release of the files," The Daily Beast reported.

Democrats Ro Khanna, Ben Ray Lujan and Jeff Merkley joined with Republicans Thomas Massie and Lisa Murkowski to demand she respond to her previous statements and give a status update from Nov. 19, after she said "new" and "additional" information had surfaced to prompt a latest look into Epstein and the people connected to him, NBC News reported.

“In the interest of transparency and clarity on the steps required to faithfully implement the Epstein Files Transparency Act, we request a briefing either in a classified or unclassified setting, to discuss the full contents of this new information in your possession at your convenience, but not later than Friday, December 5th, 2025,” according to the letter.

The Epstein Files Transparency Act requires the Justice Department to release “all unclassified records, documents, communications, and investigative materials” about Epstein by Dec. 19.

“In light of the short 30 day deadline to release the Epstein Files, we are particularly focused on understanding the contents of any new evidence, information or procedural hurdles that could interfere with the Department’s ability to meet this statutory deadline,” the lawmakers said in the letter.

Last week, Bloomberg reported that FBI Director Kash Patel had instructed about 1,000 special agents to oversee redactions to the documents. Critics suspect the documents could have embarrassing information about President Donald Trump's ties to the convicted pedophile and reveal more information about their relationship.
