The US House of Representatives is expected to approve a measure that would compel the justice department to release the "Epstein files": documents that were amassed during investigations into late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
House Speaker Mike Johnson said he expected a "large vote tally" when the measure came to the floor of the Republican-led chamber on Tuesday, after President Donald Trump called on Republican lawmakers to approve it.
But the files may not be released soon, and it is unclear if some will be held back. After the House, the measure must also be approved by the Senate.
Survivors of Epstein's abuse are also due to appear on Capitol Hill on Tuesday in support of the measure.
On Monday evening, the group World Without Exploitation projected images of some survivors onto buildings throughout Washington, all less than a mile from Capitol Hill, with the message: "Congress, release all of the files."
