Committee reviewing first production of the nominee’s White House records

WASHINGTON – Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) and Ranking Member Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) today requested records from Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s work for the...

Office of Independent Counsel during the Clinton administration. The request comes as the committee continues its review of more than 125,000 pages received yesterday from Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s White House work.

In a letter today to the National Archives and Records Administration, the senators requested documents from Kavanaugh’s service in the Office of Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr, including all emails Kavanaugh sent or received and all documents he authored, edited,

revised or approved. The National Archives estimates the volume of these documents to be 20,000 pages.

Yesterday, the committee received more than 125,000 records from Kavanaugh’s time as a White House lawyer in the George W. Bush administration.

The committee expects these records to be made public, pending consultation with the National Archives. Last week, Grassley requested that the National Archives produce documents from Kavanaugh’s work in the White House Counsel’s Office as well as records related to...

his nomination to be a judge on the D.C. Circuit. The National Archives estimates the total production to be up to one million pages. For context, the largest executive branch production for previous Supreme Court nominees was roughly 180,000 pages for Justice Neil Gorsuch.

The committee is also reviewing more than 17,000 pages from Judge Kavanaugh’s public committee questionnaire as well as more than 8,500 pages from cases in which Judge Kavanaugh authored or joined opinions during his 12 years on the D.C. Circuit.
