Alex Acosta’s Name Is Missing From Epstein Testimony List
The Chamber’s supervisory committee extended its probe to Jeffrey Epstein on Tuesday, but the former secretary of the Ministry of Labor, Alex Acosta, was absent from the list.
The president of the house surveillance, James Comer, issued assignments to 10 people in four different administrations, notably the Clinton, the former FBI directors and several general lawyers.

Acosta, a high -level figure linked to the Epstein case, was secretary at work under the first administration of President Donald Trump before resigning in 2019, according to a report from the New York Times.

He was not assigned to appear by the committee.
A spokesperson for the Chamber’s Supervisory Committee said on a daily basis that Acosta’s assignment was not a simple process.
“In a vocal vote, the Republicans and the Democrats of the Federal Sub-Committee for the Application of the Law approved a motion offered by the representative Scott Perry ordering the president to publish targeted assignments to Bill and Hillary Clinton, James Comey, Loretta Lynch, Eric Holder, Merrick Garland, Robert Mueller, William Barr, Gonzaux.
“President Comer has now issued the assignments,” the spokesman told the appellant.
The subcommittee approved the request of Perry and authorized the publication of the assignments.
Acosta has long been examined for having approved a controversial advocacy agreement in 2008 for the billionaire Jeffrey Epstein while he was an American lawyer for the southern district of Florida – a transmission agreement called a “lovers” agreement which allowed Epstein to avoid federal accusations and to serve only 13 months in prison.

Gonzales, which was assigned by the Committee, was a prosecutor General (AG) from February 2005 to August 2007, overlapping the years that Acosta was an American lawyer for the southern district of Florida.

Michael Mukasey, who was appointed by President George W. Bush to replace Gonzales in September 2007, was not elected to be assigned by the Committee.
The American deputy lawyer of the ACOSTA said that the American prosecutor’s office for the southern Florida district “looked back” to welcome Epstein while negotiating its non-payment agreement in a 2007 letter.
In October 2007, Acosta met her former Epstein colleague, Jay Lefkowitz. Instead of holding a meeting at the Acosta office in Miami, they chose to meet in a Marriott hotel in West Palm Beach, around 70 miles, Miami Herald reported.
Federal prosecutors would have proposed to remove their case if Epstein had pleaded guilty to two state accusations, registered as sex offenders, served one hour and compensated his victims.
Although he has faced a potential life in prison if she is found guilty of the federal accusations, Epstein avoided the trial and served 13 months in prison.

At a press conference in 2019, Acosta defended her management of the Epstein advocacy agreement in the midst of growing calls for his resignation. (Related: “Did you think Epstein was bad?”: Sean Spicer warns doj will “piss” maga if no indictment russiagate decreases)
He argued that, contrary to criticism, he strengthened the case in Florida rather than weakening it.
