H. RES. 14
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
January 6, 2015
Mr. Jones (for himself, Mr. Lynch, and Mr. Massie) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Select Committee on Intelligence (Permanent Select)
RESOLUTION
Urging the president to release information regarding the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks
upon the United States.
Whereas President George W. Bush classified 28 pages of the Joint Inquiry into Intelligence
Activities Before and After the Terrorist Attacks of September 2001;
Whereas the contents of the redacted pages are necessary for a full public understanding of the
events and circumstances surrounding the September 11, 2001, attacks upon
the United States;
Whereas the executive branch’s decision to maintain the classified status of these pages prevents
the people of the United States from having access to information about
the involvement of certain foreign governments in the terrorist attacks of
September 2001; and
Whereas the people of the United States and the families of the victims of the September 11, 2001,
terrorist attacks deserve full and public disclosure of the results of the
Joint Inquiry: Now, therefore, be it
That it is the sense of the House of Representatives that—
(1) the President should declassify the 28-page section of the Joint Inquiry into Intelligence
Community Activities Before and After the Terrorist Attacks of September
2001; and
(2) the families of the victims and the people of the United States deserve answers about the events
and circumstances surrounding the September 11, 2001, attacks upon the
United States.
