Can't they just like...bring it up again in September? I know collectively we have a short attention span, but Epstein stuff has been going on a long time and surely a couple more months won't matter?

Tbh delaying a vote on this seems worse because it's only going to get closer to the election and any dem who wants to win (they've been known to fumble before) will bring this up repeatedly.
