Nat’l Archives Releases 38,000 Docs on Judge Roberts

HeadlineAug 18, 2005

The National Archives is releasing more than 38-thousand documents from Supreme Court nominee John Roberts’ time as associate counsel to President Reagan. The documents cover his views on abortion, school prayer and the war powers of the president. The material is part of nearly 50 thousand pages of records related to Roberts identified in the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library. This comes as the American Bar Association yesterday gave Roberts the groups highest rating, calling him “well qualified” to sit on the bench.
