National Archives says it will turn over Mike Pence's records to January 6 panel
Washington — The National Archives and Records Administration will release records from Vice President Mike Pence to the House panel investigating the January 6 assault on the U.S. Capitol, despite efforts by former President Donald Trump to shield their release.
David Ferriero, archivist of the United States, told Trump in a letter Tuesday that he will give the documents to House investigators "after consultation with the counsel to the president and the assistant attorney general for the Office of Legal Counsel, and as instructed by President Biden."
The Archives will deliver the records to the select committee on March 3 "unless prohibited by court order," Ferriero wrote.
The records at issue stem from two separate requests the select committee made to Archives in March and August. Trump notified the Archives in a January letter he would be asserting executive privilege over a tranche of documents, which contain vice presidential records.
