(READ) Republican Buck asks for Biden visitor logs to Delaware home after classified docs found there

Rep. Ken Buck (R-Colorado) released the following statement regarding a letter he sent to President Biden after recent disclosures that classified and sensitive documents were recovered from Biden's Delaware home.

Today, I sent a letter to President Biden urging him to provide transparency and release visitor records from his Wilmington, Delaware residence in the wake of the recent disclosures that he used his personal residence's garage to store classified and sensitive documents. 

As a matter of national security and transparency, the public deserves to know who visited this residence and had access to these unsecured, classified documents.

Rep. Ken Buck, (R-Colorado)

I write today to urge you to release all visitor logs for your home in Wilmington, Delaware from January 20, 2017, to present. According to recent disclosures from your lawyers, you have used your Wilmington residence’s garage to store classified documents that should have been turned over to the National Archives.

The fact that classified and sensitive material was casually stored in your garage, apparently next to your Corvette, is deeply concerning.

As president, you have made at least 60 trips to Delaware, and you reportedly spent a substantial amount of the 2020 presidential campaign at this location. As a matter of national security and transparency, the public deserves to know who visited this residence and had access to these unsecured, classified documents.

In May 2021, you re-instituted the policy of the Obama Administration to release visitor logs for the White House, Eisenhower Executive Office Building, and New Executive Office Building. According to a White House press release, you implemented the policy to deliver on “[your] commitment to restore integrity, transparency, and trust in government.” I call on you to release the visitor logs for your Wilmington residence in light of this news and deliver on your promise of transparency to the American people.

I appreciate your attention and timely response to this pressing matter.

Sincerely,

Ken Buck
Member of Congress
