00:00What do we got here?

00:11Okay. Thank you, everybody. Good afternoon.

00:15And I'm proud to be joined by Senators Klobuchar,

00:19Merkley, and Gallego. So,

00:22yesterday, the House and Senate finally agreed to pass legislation

00:27to compel Donald Trump to release the Epstein files.

00:32A few hours after it passed the House, I came to the floor and got unanimous consent

00:38for the Senate to immediately pass that bill.

00:42I told Leader Thune that I was going to come to the floor and ask for a

00:47unanimous consent request that deemed the bill's passed,

00:51and at about five, before the first vote, and at about ten of five,

00:57he said he wasn't going to block it. That was good.

01:01But, enough, enough, enough

01:05with the Republican delay, dithering, and dilly-dally.

01:10This morning, the Senate finally received the Epstein bill.

01:14It's finally on its way to the President's desk.

01:17That's right. After months, months of waiting, months of Republican delay,

01:24so many failed attempts from Trump to hide the truth,

01:29the Epstein-File Transparency Act is headed to the desk.

01:33It's a huge step for justice,

01:36for the brave and unrelentingly courageous victims.

01:39They were amazing. It wouldn't have happened without them.

01:41We salute them.

01:42It's also a great day for Americans,

01:45because Americans wanted to see the truth.

01:50Let's be clear, though.

01:51This wouldn't have happened without Democrats,

01:53like the people with me today.

01:56But we are not done.

01:58No way.

02:00Our promise to the victims and to the American people is this.

02:04This will not and cannot be the end of the work.

02:09We'll keep the pressure up.

02:12Pressure for the President to sign.

02:15And then pressure on the DOJ to release the full, unredacted files.

02:22No hiding, no game-playing, no covering up.

02:26Pressure to make sure the documents are released in their entirety

02:29and not warped by a corrupt DOJ

02:32who's hell-bent on hiding the truth,

02:35bending the law, and protecting Trump.

02:38Trump's own Justice Department that told him

02:41he was in the files.

02:44Remember this.

02:46We know he's in there.

02:47He knows he's in them.

02:49What the heck is he hiding

02:51and been hiding for so long?

02:53It's time for the truth.

02:54This bill is a command for the President

02:57to be fully transparent, come fully clean,

03:00and provide full honesty to the American people,

03:03even if he doesn't want to.

03:05And just like we did with this vote,

03:08and for months on end,

03:10Democrats will fight for full transparency,

03:13nothing less.

03:14Senator Klobuchar.

03:17Thank you very much, Leader Schumer.

03:21Courtney Wilde, 14 years old,

03:23when she was sexually abused by Epstein.

03:27Danielle Benski, 17 years old,

03:31when Epstein sexually abused her.

03:33Her mom had a brain tumor,

03:35and he told her that he could help her mom,

03:39but only if she abided by his demands,

03:41including recruiting other girls.

03:43He told her,

03:44I can use it to help you,

03:46or I can make it really difficult for your mother.

03:50As she said recently,

03:52it's a call to action.

03:53We're standing up for so many victims of sexual assault.

03:58As a former prosecutor,

03:59I can tell you that's what this is about.

04:01It is also about trust.

04:03When Donald Trump and the Republicans

04:04promised the American people,

04:07time and time again,

04:08whether it was about bringing down costs,

04:10not true.

04:11Whether it was about making changes

04:14that help people, not true.

04:15But whether it was about releasing these Epstein files,

04:19now we'll find out the truth.

04:22Donald Trump knew that there was overwhelming numbers of votes

04:25coming in against him,

04:27and at that moment,

04:28he made the decision that he would say

04:30that he wanted the vote to go through.

04:32At that moment,

04:33when Senator Schumer made the decision to come forward,

04:36there was no one who would stand up and say,

04:38nope, we shouldn't have them released.

04:40And I thank Senator Schumer for doing this.

04:42The House discharge petition materialized

04:45because there were the votes to override his veto.

04:50So now is the moment of truth.

04:52One, he has to sign it.

04:53But two, and most importantly,

04:55when we look at what the Attorney General of the United States,

04:58who is running a Justice Department,

04:59that literally when Donald Trump orders them

05:02by truth social or in person to do something,

05:05they do it.

05:06Drop charges, they'll do it.

05:08Pardon their friends, they'll do it.

05:09It is literally a snap of their fingers.

05:11Make sure that you charge a Federal Reserve governor

05:14or the Attorney General of the State of New York

05:17or the former FBI director.

05:19We're there. We'll do it.

05:20That's what's been going on.

05:22So right now, we're facing a moment.

05:24Because of these faux investigations

05:26that she is now claiming are reopening,

05:29now we're going to find out,

05:31are they really going to release the files or not?

05:33And we are ready to stand up for victims

05:36like Danielle and so many others in this country.

05:41The Epstein files have always been about

05:48full accountability for the perpetrators

05:51and justice for the victims.

05:56And Donald Trump, when he campaigned,

05:58he said, I'm going to release these files.

06:00It became increasingly clear

06:02that that wasn't going to be in the case.

06:04So in July, 25 Democrats introduced the Epstein files bill.

06:11Not one Republican would co-sponsor it.

06:13Four months ago, then two months ago,

06:17Leader Schumer introduced that bill

06:20as an amendment on the Defense Authorization Act.

06:24And 51 Republicans tabled it.

06:28And every Democrat said, no,

06:31let's debate it and let's pass it.

06:34That was just two months ago.

06:36And then here we were yesterday.

06:39Yesterday evening,

06:40we called for all 100 senators to join

06:45in the vision of equal justice under law.

06:48And they did.

06:50And that's a great stride forward.

06:53But it is not the finish line.

06:55Because we know

06:57that Trump

06:59is not going to release those files.

07:01We are going to press him like hell.

07:04But everything we know

07:06about Donald Trump

07:07is he will obscure

07:09and delay.

07:10And there's a second set of files

07:13in the Treasury Department.

07:15$1.5 billion

07:17in suspicious activity reports.

07:20Senator Wyden

07:21and his finance team

07:23led an investigation

07:25with some bipartisan support.

07:27Those files provide

07:29huge information

07:30that will complement the information

07:32from the Department of Justice.

07:35Now, what happened

07:36yesterday evening

07:37was a really

07:39huge tribute

07:41to grassroots Americans

07:43from the far right,

07:44from the middle,

07:45from the left,

07:46all saying

07:46we believe

07:47that powerful men

07:49abusing and raping

07:52teenage girls

07:53should be held accountable.

07:55It's a vision

07:56throughout the political spectrum.

07:59And it was certainly

08:00a huge stride forward

08:01for the victims

08:02who so courageously

08:04stood up

08:05and shared their stories.

08:07But let's keep working

08:10toward the finish line

08:11when there will be

08:12actual

08:13accountability

08:15for the perpetrators

08:16and full justice

08:18for the victims.

08:20Senator Gallego.

08:23Well,

08:24today

08:25we've won the battle

08:26for justice.

08:27We've won the battle

08:27for these poor women

08:29that were victimized

08:30repeatedly

08:31both

08:31by these awful

08:33elite men

08:33as well as

08:35the Trump administration

08:36by trying to cover up

08:37every step of the way

08:38accountability.

08:39But it's just a battle.

08:40There is still war

08:41that needs to go on.

08:43We should not be

08:43in any doubt

08:44that this president

08:44is going to take

08:45every opportunity

08:46along with his allies,

08:47along with

08:48Attorney General

08:48Pan Bondi

08:49to slow down,

08:51to cover up,

08:52to confuse,

08:53because at the end of the day

08:54the truth will come out

08:55and it will hurt

08:56this administration.

08:58So I just encourage

08:59everyone that was involved

09:00and was involved

09:00in the fight

09:01from day one

09:01to make sure

09:02that we do not

09:03fall for the same traps

09:04that he's going to continue

09:05to put down.

09:06These women deserve justice.

09:08These women deserve

09:09to be treated

09:10like any other U.S. citizen

09:11and just because

09:12it was elite men

09:13from New York City

09:14or from Mar-a-Lago

09:15or from wherever

09:16in the world,

09:17they deserve to be brought

09:18to trial

09:19and to justice

09:20just as much

09:21as anyone else.

09:23The president needs

09:23to show

09:24that he is for us

09:25and not for them

09:27and stopped

09:28trying to stop

09:28a real open investigation

09:30and a real understanding

09:31of what happened

09:32with the Epstein files.

09:34Okay, questions?

09:36Mr. Schumer?

09:37Yes.

09:38What's your reaction

09:39to this proposal

09:40from Health Committee

09:41Chairman Bill Cassidy

09:42to set up HSA accounts

09:43to help people

09:44afford the insurance plans

09:46on the Obamacare marketplace?

09:48Could that be

09:49a potential common ground?

09:50Is that...

09:50Look, we insist

09:51on that the ACA tax credits

09:54have to be renewed

09:55and extended, period.

09:57If Cassidy's proposal,

09:59as I understand,

10:00it replaces them,

10:02looks like it's privatizing,

10:04health insurance,

10:06and it looks like

10:08it's really problematic

10:09and particularly problematic

10:10to do very quickly.

10:13Yes?

10:14Mr. Schumer,

10:15Republicans have said

10:16that Democrats

10:17have been too singularly focused

10:18on President Trump's rule

10:19in the Epstein files.

10:21What would you say

10:22to that criticism,

10:23and are you equally concerned

10:24about the names

10:25of Democrats

10:25or people that donated

10:27to Democratic clauses

10:28that could pop up?

10:29We think every name

10:30should come out,

10:30everything, everything.

10:32There should be no cover-up.

10:34Yes, not...

10:34No, this late...

10:35Yes, you haven't called on you.

10:37...about the Russian sanctions bill.

10:39Are you hopeful

10:40that it will finally get a vote

10:42this month now

10:42that Trump said

10:43who's okay with it?

10:45And if it does become law,

10:47what do you think

10:48should be the focus?

10:49Do you think there should be

10:50100% tariffs

10:51on Turkish goods,

10:52Chinese goods,

10:54Hungarian goods?

10:56What would be the most effective...

10:57Look, the bottom line is

10:59I think there are 87 co-sponsors

11:01or sponsors,

11:01including Leader Thune

11:03and myself.

11:03We've wanted to move the bill

11:05for a long time.

11:06Hopefully it can move.

11:08Putin has to be told

11:09in every way

11:10that he cannot be

11:11just a bully

11:12and overrun Ukraine.

11:14Okay?

11:15No, you, gentlemen.

11:16Yeah.

11:16Leader, you were given

11:17the federal force decision

11:19in Texas yesterday

11:20to strike down

11:21their gerrymanded masks.

11:22Are you boosted

11:23by Democrats' chances

11:24nationally going into 2026?

11:26Look, I'm boosted

11:27by Democrats' chances

11:28nationally to begin with.

11:29Why?

11:30Because the American people

11:31are on our side.

11:32The issue of health care

11:33has been a dramatic cleavage

11:35between Democrats

11:36fighting to prevent

11:38these premiums

11:39from going up

11:40and Republicans

11:40standing in the way.

11:42Even,

11:43we've seen this

11:44over and over again.

11:46The American people

11:47know we're on their side.

11:48They know the Republicans

11:49are opposing them.

11:51And that's going to serve us

11:53very well in 2026.
