The release of the Epstein files has reignited global outrage, with survivors demanding full transparency through a powerful Super Bowl 2026 PSA calling for unredacted documents. As pressure mounts, the US Justice Department has agreed to let Congress review millions of unreleased files linked to Epstein’s crimes
Jeffrey Epstein
The Epstein files and their horrifying details have had a global impact. The US Department of Justice has been releasing documents containing information from child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’s emails and photographs related to alleged wrongdoing. Epstein was accused by multiple women of sexual abuse and harassment, and details of his criminal past, along with his alleged links to powerful individuals, are slowly coming into the public domain. Amid this, survivors have come together to make a powerful statement demanding full transparency.
Epstein survivors appear in Super Bowl ad
During the Super Bowl 2026 broadcast, Epstein survivors featured in a striking ad campaign calling for the complete release of all remaining files. The public service announcement (PSA) demanded that heavily redacted documents be made fully public, arguing that critical information related to Epstein’s crimes continues to be withheld.
The PSA opens with the text: “On November 19, 2025, the Epstein Files Transparency Act was signed into law,” followed by the stark message, “3 million files still have not been released.” Several words in the message appear blacked out to symbolise the information that remains hidden.
Women appear on screen with black redaction bars covering their mouths as they say, “After years of being kept apart, we’re standing together.” Holding photographs of their younger selves, the survivors add, “Because this girl deserved the truth. She deserved the truth. Because we all deserve the truth.” The ad concludes with the call to action: “Stand with us. Tell Attorney General Pam Bondi it’s time for the truth.”

Redacted files to be reviewed by Congress
The Department of Justice has announced that members of the US Congress will be allowed to review unredacted Epstein files starting Monday, according to a letter sent to lawmakers and obtained by The Associated Press. Lawmakers will be granted access to unredacted versions of more than 3 million files released so far to comply with legislation passed by Congress last year.
To access the documents, lawmakers must give the Justice Department 24 hours’ notice and review the files on computers located at the Department of Justice. Only members of Congress — not their staff — will be permitted to view the files, and while note-taking is allowed, electronic copies are prohibited.
First reported by NBC News, the move highlights the continued bipartisan demand for transparency surrounding Epstein’s crimes. The Justice Department has faced criticism over delays in releasing information, failure to properly redact victims’ personal details, and not releasing all 6 million documents collected in connection with the case.
Despite these concerns, lawmakers leading the transparency push have described the DOJ’s decision to allow access to unredacted files as a significant victory.
Jeffrey Epstein died by suicide in a New York jail cell in 2019 while awaiting trial on federal charges of sexually abusing and trafficking dozens of underage girls. The case came more than a decade after Epstein had secretly reached a non-prosecution agreement with federal prosecutors in Florida over similar allegations. He was accused of paying underage girls hundreds of dollars for massages before sexually abusing them.
