Okay,
This is your last chance to sign this petition before copies are personally handed to Rep. Towns and Clay. Please pass it on to anyone you know who would like to sign it.
We hope to have an official response to this request within a week or two after it is delivered.
There are over 200 signatures, and we would like to get a few more because a few are dups and bogus, though surprisingly, a very small percentage.
We will also add a few names to the petition that will be handed in, of people who don't want their name posted on the internet, but want it included on the petition, which will become an official document that will be entered into the committee's records.
Thanks to all who have participated, and I think we will know if we are successful within a few weeks.

To: U.S. Congress
Congressional Oversight of JFK Act
To: Rep. Edolphis Towns, Chairman of the House Oversight and Reform Committee
and Rep. William Lacy Clay, Chairman of the Sub-committee on information policy, census and NARA and members of the relevant committee.
In order to regain the public’s confidence in government, which has been in decline since November 1963, Congress passed the JFK Act of 1992, requiring the release of all government records related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
Since the last time Congress conducted a hearing on the JFK Act (June 4, 1997), neither the House Oversight Committee, nor the responsible subcommittee have held one hearing on this issue, despite the destruction of Secret Service documents, the loss of national security records and the continued withholding of records that have been ordered released to the public.
It is imperative that Congress take some action to ensure that the law is enforced and the work mandated by the JFK Assassination Records Act is completed. Therefore,
We, the undersigned citizens of the United States and the free world, do hereby request the House Oversight Committee do its duty and hold public oversight hearings on the JFK Act.
