House Judiciary Democrats have urged Acting Attorney General James McHenry to ensure that the Justice Department will release the final report on the classified documents investigation promptly once the court approves the Trump administration's motion to dismiss the case. The Democrats emphasized the importance of public transparency in this matter.

In a letter obtained from sources, the Democrats also sought written assurance that President Donald Trump and Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove, who are involved parties in the case, will not have any influence on the discussions regarding the report's future.

This request follows the recent decision by the Trump administration to drop the case against the president's former co-defendants. The Justice Department's request for dismissal is pending approval from the appeals court, aligning with the desires of the co-defendants.

The Democrats highlighted the need for the American people and Congress to have access to information regarding President Trump's handling of classified documents. They stressed the significance of understanding the circumstances surrounding the mishandling of sensitive national security information.
