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 announced on Sunday that he would consider a request from relatives of 9/11 victims to release more records related to the attacks. The president made the statement while returning to the United States from Ireland.
Families of those killed in the September 11 attacks have been pushing for the declassification of additional records. New York lawmakers from both political parties have also called for the release of certain phone records related to the events.
US Representative Nicole Malliotakis, a Republican from New York, expressed optimism about the potential for greater transparency, stating it might be one of the better opportunities to bring this information to light. The mayor of New York City, Zohran Mamdani, recently made about 170,000 pages of records related to air quality, health concerns, and the city's response to the attacks available to the public.
