Former Senator Bob Graham (D-FL) talked about the 28 redacted pages released July 15, 2016, of recently declassified material from the congressional Joint Inquiry into Intelligence Community Activities Before and After the Terrorist Attacks of September 11, 2001. He co-chaired the inquiry into the attacks and had been a longtime advocate for the release of the pages linking the attacks to officials in Saudi Arabia’s government and society. Current and former members of Congress and the families of victims of the attacks had called for the pages to be declassified and released for years. In May 2016, the Senate passed the Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism (JASTA) that would allow victims and their families to sue Saudi Arabia for the attacks. The House had not voted on the legislation. close
