Trump to consider request to release more 9/11 records
Families of 9/11 victims want more records declassified, with New York lawmakers from both parties backing the release of phone records.
US President Donald Trump has indicated he will review a request from relatives of 9/11 victims to release additional records related to the attacks, according to his remarks in Ireland. Before departing for the United States, Trump stated he would "look at it" when he returned. The families of the 9/11 victims have been pressing for the declassification of more information regarding the events and whether there were ties between the perpetrators and Saudi Arabia.
New York lawmakers from both parties have also called on the Trump administration to release certain phone records connected to the attacks. US Representative Nicole Malliotakis, a Republican from New York, expressed optimism about the potential for transparency, stating that this could be one of the best opportunities to make the information accessible.
Mayor Zohran Mamdani of New York City had recently made approximately 170,000 pages of records related to air quality, health concerns, and the city's response to the attacks available to the public.
