GOP Women Defy Leadership, Win Epstein Files Release After Trump’s Sign-Off
A group of Republican women in Congress has been challenging party leadership on key issues. Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert, Nancy Mace, Anna Paulina Luna, and Kat Cammack have taken public stands against both President Trump and Speaker Mike Johnson. Their efforts have led to notable legislative wins and internal clashes.
The lawmakers first gained attention by backing a bill to release files linked to Jeffrey Epstein. Their push succeeded when Trump signed the measure into law. This victory came despite Greene’s ongoing tensions with GOP leaders, particularly over the handling of Epstein-related documents.
The lawmakers have secured at least one major legislative win with the Epstein disclosure bill. Their continued pressure on leadership suggests further confrontations ahead. For now, their focus remains on pushing for stricter ethics rules and greater openness in Congress.
