00:00Are you going to vote for this motion to subpoena the Epstein files?

00:03I'm going to amend it to protect the victims right now.

00:05It's very broad.

00:06It doesn't redact the names of the victims or other personally identifying information for the victims.

00:10So I will amend the motion or do my own motion.

00:14And I've requested that the ranking member amend it.

00:17So we're negotiating that right now.

00:28I think that should be first and foremost.

00:40This fight's coming no matter.

00:42I mean, this is here, and I've made it part of my life's mission to protect women and kids.

00:47And I think that I'm ready to take this vote.

00:49I think we should take this vote and move forward, move this country forward.

00:53And the victims deserve justice, and people deserve transparency is what they want.
