- Families say documents will show Saudi government support
- ‘There is simply no reason to keep this information secret’
Family members of victims of the September 11 terrorist attacks are opposing Joe Biden’s participation in memorial events next month unless he declassifies government documents that they contend will show Saudi Arabian leaders supported the attacks.
The victims’ family members, joined by first responders and survivors of the 2001 attack, released a letter on Friday as the event’s 20th anniversary nears calling on the US president to skip this year’s memorial events unless he releases the documents.
