I’m not sure I understand why a second law needs to be signed, to enforce the first law? Anyone willing to explain?
“Rep. Massie and I introduced our bill to release the Epstein files nearly a year ago. Since then, the DOJ has violated our law, delayed the release of millions of files, botched the redactions, and denied the survivors justice. That’s why I’m joining Rep. Massie and my colleagues to introduce the Epstein Files Transparency Act II that allows state attorneys general and survivors to sue the U.S. Attorney General and demand transparency,” said Rep. Khanna.
Love a good copy paste…
Yeah, I read it, I’m asking for an explanation why it’s needed?
The first one didn’t have any actual enforcement mechanism
Ok, so if a law lacks an enforcement mechanism, it’s unenforceable? I assumed they could be held in contempt.
Is it because the enforcement mechanism is the fed, which won’t hold itself in contempt, so we need the states to do it?
The first one assumed they would comply I suppose. This one gives state AGs explicit permission to sue the US ag for not complying
