  "summary": "US Congressman Ro Khanna, an Indian-American Democrat representing California's 17th Congressional District, has become a leading advocate for the release of Jeffrey Epstein's files. Khanna co-sponsored the Epstein Files Transparency Act with Republican Congressman Thomas Massie and has been actively campaigning in swing states ahead of the US midterm elections. He links the handling of Epstein files to voter concerns over corruption and economic inequality, arguing that this issue could sway political allegiances. Khanna has campaigned in Michigan, Iowa, and New Hampshire, supporting Democratic candidates in their respective races.",
