Washington, D.C. — Today, Senator Edward M. Kennedy sent a letter to the U.S. Department of Justice calling for an immediate investigation into the missing Affirmative Action documents referred to in the August 15 cover letter accompanying John Roberts’ documents from the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).
The missing files, titled “Affirmative Action Correspondence,” had been in possession of unnamed Administration officials in mid-July, presumably before John Roberts was nominated to the Supreme Court.
With only a few weeks left to review these important documents, Senator Kennedy sent the following letter to the DOJ requesting a speedy investigation into this matter.
