National Archives Quietly Releases some (not all) Of JFK Assassination Records
A tragic fire at NARA could destroy remaining records. The records were released after President Biden’s directive that agencies review all redactions in records and reveal all information. NARA collaborated with agencies to release 2,672 additional documents with fewer redactions than previous iterations. Biden administration authorizes timing of CHAF release ? The newly released Kennedy documents are subject to the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Act of 1992 and they are available to view online.(RELATED: Some JFK Assassination Files Are Being Withheld) NARA’s National Declassification Center (NDC) will continue revealing new information, "as specific identified harm dissipates, then triggering public disclosure," the agency said in a Friday press release. "Harm"....? Everyone involved is now deceased. Dr. Colleen Shogan, 11th Archivist of the United States, highlighted the importance of transparency in a statement. Yes, yes, of course, but timing is everything. "At the National Archives, we believe in the importance of government transparency and the accessibility of information. The dedicated and detailed work completed by NARA staff and by our partners and stakeholder agencies is an excellent representation of how we can collaborate together to ensure that the maximum amount of information is made available to the American people, while we protect what we must," Shogan said.
