U.S. Representative Pramila Jayapal, who serves Washington’s 7th district in Congress, addressed a range of issues in a series of posts on February 13, 2026. The topics included government transparency regarding the Epstein case and new legislative efforts to protect transgender rights.
In her first post at 03:01 UTC, Jayapal credited Arthur Delaney of HuffPost for a video, stating: “Video credit: Arthur Delaney, HuffPost”.
Later that day at 15:25 UTC, she commented on the Department of Justice’s handling of the Epstein Files Transparency Act: “The Epstein Files Transparency Act required the DOJ to protect the identities of survivors and expose the abusers. They failed to do so for too many people. It’s all one big, botched cover-up.”
At 16:30 UTC, Jayapal highlighted her legislative work supporting transgender rights alongside Senator Ed Markey. She wrote: “ICYMI: I introduced my Trans Bill of Rights with @SenMarkey — legislation to defend trans people across this country as Republicans continue to push anti-trans rhetoric and bills. To our beloved trans community: We see you, we love you, and we will always stand with you.”
Pramila Jayapal has represented Washington’s 7th District in Congress since 2017 after serving in the Washington State Senate from 2014 to 2016.
