💨 Abstract
House Speaker Mike Johnson has sent lawmakers home early for a month-long break amid pressure to act on the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. Johnson is deferring to the White House to release Epstein-related information, despite bipartisan calls for more transparency. Republicans, inspired by President Trump's previous promises, are pushing for legislation to release more records. The House Rules Committee suspended sessions to avoid debates on Epstein files and is now facing intra-party turmoil.
