Next week, Andrew Iler, Mark Adamczyk, and I are heading up to Washington, D.C., to meet with Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna. Congresswoman Luna chairs the Congressional Task Force On The Declassification of Government Secrets. We have secured an opportunity to brief her personally on critical record keeping and oversight issues that have been festering for years. These are issues that we believe are core to the committee’s mission when it comes to assessing the state of JFK Records disclosure and accounting for all JFK assassination records. Perhaps, more importantly, these are issues core to restoring the government's strict legal compliance with the JFK Records Act and public confidence in what is being shared with our citiziens. Congresswoman Luna’s Task Force on the Declassification of Government Secrets is currently finalizing its historic report, and we are making this trip to ensure that our actionable recommendations are explicitly cemented into that document. We are hopeful that our recommendations are going to be taken seriously. For nearly 27 years, the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) has operated outside its statutory authority, undermining a law that Congress unanimously passed to guarantee an "enforceable, independent, and accountable" process for public disclosure. Early in the task force’s existence, we provided a formal submission that outlined and discussed a myriad of critical issues including missing Final Determination Notifications (FDN’s) and the lack of a searchable (and verified complete) index of records. We are hopeful that our input will help to restart congressional oversight of the records collection and be the blueprint to finally correct decades of improper record administration by NARA in the post Assassination Record Review Board era. Andrew Iler and Mark Adamczyk are two of the foremost experts on the planet when it comes to the technicalities of the JFK Records Act. Their continuing research has uncovered issues with the records collection that can no longer be swept aside. Stay tuned for the results of our meetings and we will report them right here at JFK The Enduring Secret.
