evidence: Comer, Jordan, Smith Demand White House Release All Drafts of Then-VP Biden’s Ukrainian 2015 Rada Speech as Part of Impeachment Inquiry [...] WASHINGTON—House Committee on Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.), House Committee on the Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), and House Committee on Ways and Means Chairman Jason Smith (R-Mo.) today are calling on the White House to immediately authorize the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) to provide all drafts of then-Vice President Joe Biden’s speech delivered to the Ukrainian Rada on December 9, 2015. This request comes as part of the House’s inquiry into whether sufficient grounds exist to impeach President Biden. [...] Chairman Comer requested these documents over five months ago, but the White House has refused to allow NARA to release them to Congress. Within a week of receiving the request, NARA indicated it was able to provide the White House with the full set of documents covering the request for all drafts of then-Vice President Biden’s speech. However, under federal law, NARA must receive White House approval before releasing the documents. For over five months, the White House has refused to authorize the release.
