EXCLUSIVE: Republican Senators Chuck Grassley and Ron Johnson are pressing the White House over its interpretation of federal records laws after the discovery of classified records from President Biden’s time as vice president at the Penn Biden Center and another undisclosed location.
According to a letter Wednesday to Richard Sauber, special counsel to Biden, first obtained by Fox News Digital, the senators question whether Biden properly followed the Presidential Records Act.
"The discovery of these documents raises questions about whether then-Vice President Joe Biden properly followed the Presidential Records Act and the possibility that other documents have not been properly archived," they wrote.
The senators state that in July 2021 and June 2022, they asked the White House about Biden's use of a non-government email for government business and communication with his son, Hunter.
Grassley and Johnson said the White House responded on June 28, 2022 stating, "I can say that the Biden/Harris Administration recognizes and understands the federal records laws."
"The Biden Administration may understand the federal records laws but it does not appear that they were properly followed by then-Vice President Biden," they wrote.
