We just filed over a dozen new requests for communications, calendars, memos, resumes, and ethics documents related to Amy Coney Barrett, Britt Grant, Barbara Lagoa, and Deputy White House Counsel Kate Todd. Here are the specifics:
To investigate Barbara Lagoa, we asked the Florida Governor’s Office for Gov. DeSantis’s communications with people outside the government about his appointment of Lagoa to the state supreme court. americanoversight.org/document/recor…
