Washington — House Speaker Mike Johnson said there will not be a vote before Congress' August recess on a resolution that calls on the Trump administration to release more files related to child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

The House left a day early for a summer break that Sen. Chuck Schumer has dubbed "the Epstein recess" as Democrats try to capitalize on a major pain point for Republicans.

Johnson claimed that House Republicans and the president both want more transparency when it comes to Epstein, and so no further action from Congress needs to be taken yet.
