People who carried out and aided in these horrific crimes thought their wealth and power meant that they would never have to answer for them.

犯下這些可怕罪行並協助的人，認為他們的財富和權力意味著他們永遠不必為此負責。

基礎被動語態

They thought the system was rigged for them and not against them, but against their victims.

他們以為體制是為他們量身打造，而不是針對他們，而是針對他們的受害者。

而且很長一段時間，他們是對的。

But we have a chance now to prove them wrong.

但我們現在有機會證明他們錯了。

We have the chance to say that in America, you will be held accountable.

我們有機會說，在美國，你必須為自己的行為負責。

Doesn't matter if you're rich, doesn't matter if you're a Republican or a Democrat.

無論你多有錢，無關你是共和黨還是民主黨。

If you hurt people, you will answer for it.

如果你傷害了別人，你就必須承擔後果。

Powerful people like the President of the United States and the speaker of the House have tried very hard to keep the whole truth from coming out.

像美國總統和眾議院議長這樣的權勢男子，一直非常努力地阻止真相大白。

他們讓 Adelita Grijova 等了多久？

50 days to take her seat in Congress just to delay accountability.

五十天才能進入國會就職，只是為了拖延問責。

And next, we're going to need your help on the other side of the Capitol making sure that Senate leadership doesn't delay this any further.

接下來，我們需要在國會大廈的另一邊尋求你的幫助，確保參議院領導層不再進一步拖延。

They need to schedule a vote on this so this can get passed into law.

他們需要安排對此進行投票，這樣才能通過成為法律。

但只要我們齊心協力，就能達成目標。

Because at the core of this, this isn't about Congress members or senators or the media.

因為這件事的核心，並不是關於國會議員、參議員或媒體。

This is about real victims, but also about their families who deserve justice and who deserve accountability.

這是關於真正的受害者，以及他們同樣值得獲得正義和問責的家人。

And together, we're going to make this happen.

We've got a little bit more work ahead of us, but

my hope is that Leader Thune will do the right thing and bring this legislation to the floor of the Senate and allow a vote.

我希望參議院多數黨領袖桑恩能做對的事，將這項法律提交參議院審議並允許表決。

Next up, we have Representative Robert Garcia.

接下來，我們有請代表羅伯特·加西亞。

First, let me just start by saying that today, especially all of our thoughts are with every single survivor and victim of Jeffrey Epstein.

首先，讓我先說，今天我們所有人的心都與傑弗裡·愛潑斯坦的每一位受害者同在。

These are incredible women who, many of whom were abused when they were children at the hands of powerful men in our country and censoring them.

這些了不起的女性，其中許多人在童年時期就遭受了我們國家權勢男子的虐待，並且她們的聲音被壓制。

And the work that you're all doing should happen every single day as we debate in the Congress what our next steps are as it relates to holding people and the powerful accountable.

而你們所有人正在做的努力，應該每天都在進行，因為我們在國會辯論下一步該如何讓那些權勢人物為他們的行為負責。

I, of course, want to thank all the advocacy groups that are here.

我當然要感謝所有在場的倡導團體。

I especially want to thank Congresswoman Grijalva, who has been a great friend, but

我特別要感謝葛裡哈瓦眾議員，她一直以來都是很棒的朋友，

also a true leader and champion of ensuring that this process move forward.

也是一位真正帶領並推動這個進程的領導者。

I serve as the lead Democrat on our Oversight Committee, and

我是監督委員會的首席民主黨代表，

our investigation on the Epstein files is driving a lot of this work.

我們對愛潑斯坦檔案的調查是推動這項工作的關鍵。

And I'm grateful to Congressman Khanna, Congressman Massie for their incredible leadership in this vote that's about to happen here in just a couple hours.

我很感謝克漢納眾議員、馬西眾議員，他們在即將在幾小時後舉行的這場投票中展現了令人難以置信的領導力。

But we also want to be very clear, once this vote happens and goes to the Senate, we are expecting the Senate to take this vote up.

但我們也想非常清楚地表明，一旦這項投票通過並送交參議院，我們期望參議院能對此進行表決。

And Leader Thu needs to do the right thing by the survivors and call for for a vote immediately.

桑恩領袖需要為受害者做對的事，立即要求進行投票。

In addition to that, we want to make it very clear to the President, he has been fighting this vote for months.

除此之外，我們想讓總統非常清楚，他幾個月來一直在阻撓這次投票。

After saying that he would release the files during the campaign after his Attorney General said the files were on her desk, he then flip flops and has been doing everything in his power to stop the release of the files and stop justice for the survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's horrific sexual trafficking ring.

在競選期間，他曾說過會公佈這些檔案，在他總檢察長說檔案在她桌上後，他卻出爾反爾，盡其所能阻止檔案的公開，阻止傑弗裡·愛潑斯坦可怕性交易集團的受害者們獲得正義。

But now the president seeing a loss in the House, has flip flopped.

但現在總統看到眾議院的失利，又出爾反爾了。

We're not going to forget his opposition and we need to be clear eyed that this new investigation that he has launched is likely another way of trying to stop the release of the files to the Congress, to the public and for justice for the women and girls who have been fighting on this issue every day.

我們不會忘記他的反對，而且我們必須清楚地認識到，他發起的這項新調查很可能是另一種阻止檔案被釋放給國會、公眾，以及阻止為每天在這個議題上奮鬥的女性和兒童伸張正義的方法。

I want to remind the President as well that he has the power to release the files today.

我也想提醒總統，他今天就有權力釋放這些檔案。

He has the power to release the files without a vote.

他有權力在不經投票的情況下釋放這些檔案。

In fact, a few months ago, the Oversight Committee put in place a subpoena for all of the files through the Department of Justice and still they have released nothing.

事實上，幾個月前，監督委員會透過司法部發布了傳票，要求提供所有檔案，但他們至今仍未釋放任何東西。

And so at the end of the day, Donald Trump today can bring justice for the survivors and he refuses to do so.

所以歸根究柢，唐納·川普今天可以為受害者伸張正義，但他卻拒絕這麼做。

It's important, and this is a message directly to Leader Thune.

這很重要，這是一個直接給桑恩領袖的訊息。

He needs to understand that this issue is bigger than what we're just doing here in the Congress.

他需要明白，這個議題比我們在國會這裡所做的還要重大。

There are millions of girls and women that are watching our actions across the country and the world.

有數百萬的女孩和女性正在關注我們在全國和全世界的行動。

There are millions that are survivors themselves of sexual abuse.

有數百萬人本身就是性虐待的受害者。

There are millions that are being abused in their workplace or in their home.

有數百萬人正在工作場所或家中遭受虐待。

And they're watching us and asking, will our government, will our leaders actually do anything about this abuse or are they going to continue to hide and protect the men and abusers at the highest levels of government and power?

而他們正在看著我們，問我們的政府、我們的領袖，究竟會不會為這些虐待行為採取行動，還是會繼續躲藏起來，保護政府和權力高層中的那些男人和施虐者？

And if the Epstein survivors who were abused by the most powerful cannot get justice, how can the millions of women and survivors across the country and world expect justice for themselves?

如果那些曾被權勢男子虐待的愛潑斯坦倖存者都無法獲得正義，那麼全國和全世界數百萬的女性和倖存者又該如何期待獲得正義呢？

And so this is a very important moment for the country.

所以，這是國家一個非常重要的時刻。

And lastly, I'll say this, I'm often asked, what's next?

最後，我會這麼說，我常被問到，接下來是什麼？

This is directly from the survivors and I've been talking to them pretty regularly, including one just two days ago.

這是倖存者們直接傳達的訊息，我經常和他們聯繫，包括兩天前才聯絡過一位。

They have all asked us to look where they believe the truth is, and

他們都要求我們去尋找他們認為的真相，

that is in the financial and bank records of the most powerful financial institutions in this country that have the information and where the money was transferred from those powerful men who paid and were involved in the trafficking of these girls.

那就是這個國家最有權勢的金融機構的財務和銀行記錄，這些記錄包含了那些付錢並參與這些女孩人口販運的權勢男子的金錢轉移資訊。

So if you are the president of a bank, if you are a leader of a financial organization, and

所以，如果你是一家銀行的總裁，如果你是一個金融組織的領導者，

you are hiding information as it relates to, to justice for these women, the Oversight committee is coming after those documents.

而你卻為了這些女性的正義而隱藏資訊，監督委員會將會追查這些文件。

Next up, we have Representative Kelly Morrison.

接下來，我們有來自明尼蘇達州第三選區的眾議員凱莉·莫里森。

Please join me in welcoming her to the podium.

I'm Kelly Morrison, Congresswoman from Minnesota's third District.

我是凱莉·莫里森，來自明尼蘇達州第三選區的國會議員。

Good to be here with all of you this morning on this incredibly important day.

很高興今天能和大家一起，在這個意義非凡的日子裡。

Thank you so much to the Sexual Violence Prevention association for bringing us together.

非常感謝性暴力防治協會將我們聚集在一起。

So much gratitude to Teresa for being here today.

非常感謝泰瑞莎今天能來到現場。

Your bravery, selflessness and advocacy are truly remarkable.

您的勇氣、無私奉獻和倡導精神，真的非常令人欽佩。

Your courage to speak out and stand up for others is the only reason we are in this position today, finally able to try and bring the justice and transparency that is far too long overdue.

您的勇氣，為他人挺身而出，正是我們今天能有此機會，尋求遲來的正義與透明化的關鍵。

And thank you to the Sexual Violence Prevention association for delivering this letter today, bringing nearly 50 organizations dedicated to ending child abuse, sexual violence and human trafficking together to call on Congress to pass the Epstein Files Transparency act and demand the release of the files.

非常感謝性暴力防治協會今天呈遞這封信，匯集了近五十個致力於終結兒童性侵、性暴力和人口販運的組織，共同呼籲國會通過《愛潑斯坦檔案透明法案》，並要求公開這些檔案。

Because that is exactly what today is about.

Standing up against child abuse, sexual violence and human trafficking.

挺身對抗兒童性侵、性暴力和人口販運。

Today is an opportunity for us to send an important message here in D.C.

今天，我們有機會在華盛頓特區傳達一個重要的訊息。

Today is our opportunity to say, no matter who you are, no matter how rich you are, no matter how powerful you are, you are not above the law.

今天，是我們發聲的機會，告訴大家，無論您是誰，無論您多富有，無論您多有權勢，您都不能凌駕於法律之上。

No amount of money, power, connections or corruption can buy you a free pass to abuse children or sell human beings.

無論多少金錢、權力、人脈或腐敗，都無法讓您逍遙法外，去虐待兒童或販賣人口。

For decades, the government and people in power have been complicit in covering up the horrific abuses of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

數十年來，政府和權勢人物在掩蓋傑弗裡·愛潑斯坦和吉斯蘭·麥斯威爾的駭人聽聞的虐待行為上，一直扮演著幫凶的角色。

The time has come for the victim, victims and survivors to get the justice and the transparency they are asking for and deserve.

是時候讓受害者、受虐者和倖存者獲得他們所要求和應得的正義與透明度了。

The time has come for the perpetrators to be held accountable.

是時候讓加害者們負起責任了。

The time has come for the corrupt leaders who were complicit in facilitating this to be exposed.

是時候讓那些共謀促成此事、腐敗的領導者們被揭露了。

The time has come for the American people to get the transparency they have demanded.

是時候讓美國人民獲得他們所要求的透明度了。

And we have to ask ourselves, if we don't get this right, right, if we don't release the files and bring justice to the victims and hold the perpetrators accountable, what message would that send?

我們必須問問自己，如果我們做不好這件事，如果我們不公開這些文件，不為受害者伸張正義，不讓加害者負起責任，那會傳達什麼樣的訊息？

今天我們要說，這種情況不能再繼續下去了。

We are putting the rich and powerful on notice.

我們要向富人和權勢者發出警告。

We are saying, you cannot and will not get away with exploitation and abuse.

我們要說，你們不能、也不會逍遙法外，去剝削和虐待他人。

There is nothing more deeply American than the notion that everyone has equal rights under the law.

沒有什麼比「每個人在法律面前都享有平等權利」這個觀念更具美國精神了。

And today, we are reasserting our rights as Americans.

而今天，我們要重申我們身為美國人的權利。

I met with survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell alongside members of the Democratic Women's Caucus earlier this fall.

今年秋天稍早，我與「民主女性黨團」的成員們一同會見了傑弗裡·愛潑斯坦和吉斯蘭·麥斯威爾的受害者。

We have seen seen the lengths the rich and powerful will go to cover up their crimes.

我們已經見識過那些富人和權勢者為了掩蓋罪行會不擇手段。

But these women are putting everything on the line simply to ensure that we never allow this to happen to anyone else ever again.

但這些女性正冒著一切風險，只為確保我們絕不再讓這樣的事情發生在任何人身上。

So today, every single member of the U.S.

所以今天，美國國會眾議院的每一位議員都將留下紀錄，表明他們是會選擇同謀掩蓋罪行、保護戀童癖者以及腐敗的富人和權勢者，還是會站在正義、真相、透明度以及

house of Representatives will go on record to say whether they will be complicit in a cover up, protecting pedophiles and the corrupt rich and powerful, or if they stand on the side of justice, truth, transparency, and
