PRESS RELEASE

JOHN F. KENNEDY ASSASSINATION RESEACHERS TO PICKET THENATIONAL ARCHIVES

John F. Kennedy assassination researchers will picket the National Archiveson Constitution Avenue between Seventh and Ninth Streets, N.W. near the Visitor'sEntrance on Monday, October 8, 2012 between 10:00 a.m. and 12:00 Noon anddistribute an open letter to David S. Ferriero, the Archivist of the UnitedStates.

The purpose of the picket will be to protest the decisionby the National Archives not to declassify documents related to the assassinationof President John Kennedy, a decision made at the request of the CentralIntelligence Agency.

The National Archives' decision is in violation ofPresident Barack Obama' executive order of Tuesday, December 29, 2009 that"no information may remain classified
indefinitely" as part of sweeping overhaul of the executive branch'ssystem protecting
classified national security information.

President Obama also established a new National Declassification Centerat the National Archives to speed the process of declassifying historicaldocuments by centralizing their review. The President set a four year deadlinefor processing a 400-million-page backlog of such records that originallyincluded the JFK assassination records to be released on the 50[SUP]th[/SUP]anniversary of Kennedy's death, but later reneged on that commitment.

The October 8[SUP]th[/SUP] picket is in protest thatdecision by the Archives and the continued withholding of JFK assassinationrecords past the 50[SUP]th[/SUP] anniversary of the assassination.

50 YEARS IS LONG ENOUGH! FREETHE JFK ASSASSINATION RECORDS - IN OUR LIFETIME
