In an article from The Guardian, it is stated that, since Adelita Grijalva was sworn into the House of Representatives, there will be a vote to release the Epstein files. The article states that, since there were 218 signatures, there is to be an automatic vote. 

I've heard that there has been a lot of backlash concerning the files, and there are many reasons as to why that haven't come out yet. These files have the potential to change various peoples lives, so it's important to know if they actually have true potential to be realeased. The extra emails that have been released as well (NPR) seem to add gravity to the situation, as the files may have more to do with certain people than previously thought.

According to ABC news "Here's what an Epstein files vote in the house could look like"The earliest a vote could come is likely Tuesday, but that is if the members of the house force a vote, otherwise it could take weeks for a vote to occur given Republican leaders seem hesitant on bringing it to a vote.
