The White House Orders the National Archives to Release Pence’s Records
The Biden administration has ordered the National Archives to turn over records from former Vice President Mike Pence despite objections from former President Trump.
A Tuesday letter from White House counsel Dana Remus directed the agency to begin releasing the documents to the House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol.
“Many of the records as to which the former President has made a claim of privilege in this set of documents, however, were communications concerning the former Vice President’s responsibilities as President of the Senate in certifying the vote of presidential electors on January 6, 2021,” Remus wrote.
