Here’s a question for the presidential contenders of 2016:
Will you declare “unequivocally” your intention to release the remaining JFK assassinations records in 2017?
It is a basic test of the candidates’ commitment to open government and rule of law.
The question comes in a letter from Jim Lesar and the board of the Assassination Archives and Research Center in Washington DC. It is addressed to the men and women who seek the highest office in the land in 2016.

I assume this letter was sent to all the current candidates. If so, has AARC received back any responses? How and when will the responses be communicated to the public?
