“This vote is an important step towards justice and accountability. Leon Black has continued to defy two congressional subpoenas and we need to know why he gave Jeffrey Epstein $180 million dollars. We will continue to center the survivors in our fight to hold those responsible for these horrific crimes. We are just getting started,” said Ranking Member Robert Garcia.

The article reports that House Oversight and Judiciary staff visited Ghislaine Maxwell's prison, and that Robert Garcia and Jamie Raskin said the Bureau of Prisons blocked questions about Maxwell's transfer, alleged special treatment, and retaliation concerns.
Assessments
The promise was to continue Epstein-related oversight, not necessarily to complete or resolve the broader case. The evidence shows Robert Garcia was actively engaged in House oversight during his current federal term, including participation in staff inquiry and public pressure on the Bureau of Prisons regarding Ghislaine Maxwell-related issues. That constitutes a concrete continuation of the investigation within the relevant office context, so this is best scored as delivered in the same term.
