H.R. 637, known as the JFK Act of 2023, would require several federal agencies—including the CIA, FBI, and Department of Defense—to publicly release all remaining unclassified and unredacted records related to the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy. The bill also directs the Department of Justice to petition courts to unseal any relevant grand jury or legal documents that remain hidden from public view.
