Members of Congress will be able to review unredacted Department of Justice files on Jeffrey Epstein starting Monday, according to a letter obtained by NBC News.
The review will take place in person at DOJ offices, where lawmakers will access the material on computers but cannot examine physical documents, the outlet reported. Lawmakers will be allowed to take notes, but are not permitted to use electronic devices.
Access will be limited exclusively to members of Congress themselves – not their staff.
The files include the roughly 3 million documents already publicly available, though DOJ officials say the total trove in their possession exceeds 6 million items, according to NBC News.
The move comes after lawmakers – including Reps. Thomas Massie (R-KY) and Ro Khanna (D-CA) sent letters requesting access to the unredacted files. Democrats on the Judiciary Committee also pressed for an early review of the unredacted files ahead of Attorney General Pam Bondi's appearance before the Judiciary Committee next week.
