With Grijalva having been sworn in, the discharge petition to force a vote on the legislation mandating the file release now has 218 signatures.
Under the rules, it won't be acted on immediately - but unless the GOP kills it, it will force a vote in the House sometime in early December.
Whether Thune brings it up in the Senate is an interesting question. He can kill it by just not bringing it to the floor, or he can arrange to have it fail a floor vote - with 53 Senators, the GOP has 12 votes to give on a cloture motion, so he can release a lot of his folks to vote "yes" to protect themselves in 2026 and still have it fail. Or he can let it pass if there's more than 13 Senators that want to approve it and let Trump veto it.
