If the bill is passed, the US Department of Justice will be obliged to disclose all unclassified investigation materials related to Epstein, who was accused of sex trafficking.
For the law to come into force, it must still be approved by the Senate, where 60 out of 100 senators' votes are needed for adoption.
The law aims to end selective disclosure and ensure full transparency in a case that has been a source of political speculation for years.
