The American Historical Association has filed a lawsuit challenging a recent Department of Justice memorandum declaring the Presidential Records Act unconstitutional. The memo threatens transparency and record-keeping throughout the executive branch, including the National Archives. This case is about whether the American people can access and learn from the records that document our nation’s history. @histodons #AmericanHistory #PresidentialRecordsAct #AmericanHistoricalAssociation https://www.historians.org/news/aha-files-lawsuit-to-defend-the-presidential-records-act/
