Dec. 22 (UPI) -- Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said he will create legislation to "initiate legal action against the Department of Justice for its blatant disregard of the law in its refusal to release the complete Epstein files."
"The law Congress passed is crystal clear: release the Epstein files in full so Americans can see the truth," Schumer wrote on X. "Instead, the Trump Department of Justice dumped redactions and withheld the evidence -- that breaks the law."
