πŸš¨πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ MLK FILES: CONGRESS WARNED CIA NOT TO RELEASE KING DOCS WITHOUT APPROVAL

A 1979 letter from Rep. Louis Stokes, Chairman of the House Select Committee on Assassinations, urged the CIA to keep tight control over files tied to its investigation into Dr. King and JFK. 

The letter warned that any materials originating from Congress or linked to the investigation should not be released under the Freedom of Information Act unless the House gave explicit written approval. 

Even after the committee wrapped its work, lawmakers wanted to keep a firm grip on what the public would see.
