The Honorable Donald J. Trump

Dear President Trump:

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 January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol (“Select Committee”) the Vice Presidential records from our December 8, 2021, Notification that you identified as privileged in your letter of January 18, 2022.

Pursuant to President Biden’s subsequent instruction and my authority under 36 C.F.R. 1270.44(g), I will deliver these pages to the Select Committee 30 days after this notification (which is March 3, 2022), unless prohibited by court order.

Production to the Select Committee of the records from the December 8, 2021, notification as to which privilege was not formally asserted in your January 18, 2022, letter is ongoing and will continue until complete.

Sincerely,

David S. Ferriero
