House Oversight Committee Democrats issued five demands to Attorney General Pam Bondi for compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act after she refused to commit to testifying under subpoena.

Democrats walked out of a closed-door hearing on Wednesday, accusing Bondi of obstructing the law and participating in a cover-up.

The DOJ has withheld 3 million pages and redacted hundreds of thousands more while releasing documents exposing survivors' names and personal information.

Democrats demanded full unredacted access to all Epstein files; removal of unlawful redactions; unrestricted computer access on Capitol grounds for lawmakers; authorized staff access; and prohibition of monitoring congressional searches or communications.

Democrats noted that survivors were forced to search documents to protect their identities and discovered missing witness interviews and co-conspirator allegations. The demands represent escalating tension between lawmakers and the Justice Department over transparency in the Epstein investigation.
