Judge Seeks Archival of All Whitehouse Emails

A judge sought that employees find emails that they sent and received between 2003 and 2005.

The Washington district judge Henry H. Kennedy Jr. brought a decision that Whitehouse employees must keep the emails that they sent and received between 2003 and 2005, writes the Washington Post.

Those messages will be sent to the National Archive, and more than ten million dollars has been spent to find 14 million emails that disappeared four years ago from the Whitehouse computers. The Whitehouse has been asked to ensure the unhindered searching of computers that were used by Whitehouse employees.

The National Security Archive filed a report in 2007 because it considers that the data could disappear after president George W. Bush’s mandate ends.

The period in which the emails were sent and received matches the beginning of the war in Iraq.
