GOP-Led Panel Kills Bid to Subpoena Epstein Banking Records
A subcommittee of the House Financial Services Committee on Sept. 9, 2025, quashed a bid by Democrats to subpoena the Department of the Treasury for the release of banking records on more than $1.5 billion in transactions by Jeffrey Epstein and his international sex-trafficking ring. The subpoena targeted “suspicious activity” reports that JP Morgan Chase, Bank of America, Deutsche Bank and Bank of New York submitted over many years to the department’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN).
Under a national-security law enacted after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on America, financial institutions are required to file a Suspicious Activity Report with FinCEN flagging any potentially illegal transactions such as money laundering or terrorist financing by one of their customers.
This vote was conducted by the Subcommittee on National Security, Illicit Finance and International Financial Institutions.
A yes vote was to kill a subpoena for the release of Epstein’s banking records.
