Most voters want Biden to fulfill promise on JFK records release, poll finds

WASHINGTON – Almost three-quarters of of voters want President Joe Biden to comply with a Dec. 15 deadline to release the full records on the assassination of former President John F. Kennedy, according to a recent poll.

Nearly 60 years after Kennedy was killed while on a political trip to Dallas, nearly 16,000 records related to the assassination have yet to be released due to pandemic delays and requests from involved agencies.

The remaining records were initially scheduled to be released in 2017 in accordance with the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Act of 1992. However, former President Donald Trump first delayed the records release in 2017 after lobbying from involved agencies.
