Former vice president Mike Pence was known to have faced pressure from Donald Trump and his allies to overturn the 2020 elections. As part of the congressional committee’s probe into the Capitol insurrection, the National Archives has announced that it will start turning over Pence’s records from Jan. 6, 2021, to the panel.
Pence’s vice-presidential records have now been turned over to the National Archives, who will then turn the records over to the select committee in 30 days, according to CNN’s Katelyn Polantz. Pence’s records are among those that Trump has desperately sought to block but was ultimately shut down by the Supreme Court.
The Archives said that they will turn over the documents to the House Committee in 30 days regardless of the former president’s acts of protests. The statement from the archives added that a court order will be required to keep the records from going public.
“After consultation with the Counsel to the President, and the Assistant Attorney General for the Office of Legal Counsel, and as instructed by President Biden, I have determined to disclose to the House Select Committee to Investigate the Attack on the United States Capitol the Vice Presidential Records from Dec. 8, 2021, Notification that you identified as privileged in your letter of Jan. 18, 2022,” said the letter.
Pence has been drawing the ire of his former boss for ultimately refusing to overturn the election results during the joint session of Congress. The former vice president has repeatedly asserted that he does not have the authority to do so despite Trump’s demands.
Recently, close aides to Pence have been revealed to testify for hours before the congressional panel and extensively cooperating with the committee. However, according to CNN, aides to the former vice president would not discuss what the conversations between Trump and Pence were about, as Trump’s lawyers warned them that revealing those conversations were a violation of executive privilege.
Despite not disclosing the conversations between Trump and Pence, the former vice president’s aides still testified about their conversations with Pence, and have been much more willing to talk to the committee compared to the former president’s allies.
