The developments come two weeks after President Donald Trump, a former friend of Epstein’s, signed a bipartisan bill ordering the Justice Department to release files from investigations into the registered sex offender.
Trump’s signature started a 30-day timer for Attorney General Pam Bondi to publicly release declassified files on Epstein and his convicted accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell.
On Wednesday, a bipartisan group of five lawmakers asked Bondi for a briefing and status update on the Justice Department’s efforts to collect those files ahead of the looming deadline. NBC News reported.
Oversight ranking Rep. Robert Garcia, D-Calif., separately called on the president for the government to immediately release all the Epstein files.

“These new images are a disturbing look into the world of Jeffrey Epstein and his island,” Rep. Robert Garcia, D-Calif., said in a statement accompanying his committee’s latest statement.
“We are releasing these photos and videos to ensure public transparency in our investigation and to help piece together the full picture of Epstein’s horrific crimes. We will not stop fighting until we achieve justice for survivors,” Garcia said.
“Now is the time for President Trump to release all the files,” he added.
A spokesman for the committee majority criticized the move by Democratic members, saying, “It’s odd that Democrats are once again releasing selective information as they have done before.”
Democrats had previously released thousands of documents obtained through a subpoena to Epstein’s estate, including emails showing Epstein discussing Trump.
Photos released Wednesday include images of multiple partially furnished bedrooms and bathrooms.

Maxwell is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for acting as Epstein’s supplier of teenage girls. He was interviewed by senior DOJ official Todd Blanche in July, during which time he said he was unaware of any wrongdoing by Trump.
About a week later, Maxwell was moved to a minimum security women’s prison in Texas.
In a letter filed Wednesday in Manhattan federal court, Maxwell said she plans to file a petition to be released from prison through her attorney, NBC and The New York Times reported.
