After calling for the release of the Epstein files, Senator Dan Sullivan was a deciding vote to block the release of the Epstein files.

ANCHORAGE, AK – Senator Dan Sullivan voted against forcing the Department of Justice to release the files related to convicted pedophile and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. 

In July of this year, Sullivan called for the release of the Epstein files, saying the DOJ should “release as much information as possible on Epstein’s horrific crimes.” But on September 10th, when he had the opportunity to do exactly that, Sullivan voted NO and blocked the effort to release the files.

Statement from Chair Eric Croft of the Alaska Democratic Party:

“Just two months ago, Dan Sullivan called on the Department of Justice to release the documents to shine a light on convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’s horrific crimes. But last night, Dan Sullivan was a deciding vote to continue the cover-up and block an effort to force the DOJ to release the Epstein files. Instead of listening to Alaskans and the victims of Jeffrey Epstein, Sullivan acted in his usual fashion – like a spineless politician who’s only loyal to his billionaire buddies. Alaskans and survivors deserve better.”
