Adelita Grijalva Sworn In, Signs Petition for Epstein Files Vote

Outlets across the sides link Grijalva's roughly seven-week-delayed swearing-in to a petition that could force a House vote on releasing Epstein-related files. Left-leaning outlets portray the delay as a denial of representation and foreground Grijalva's criticism of Johnson. Center outlets largely explain the petition's path to a House vote, while also reporting criticism and Johnson's denial. Right-leaning outlets likewise emphasize the vote's potential, but present the delay through competing claims rather than adopting the criticism.
