Kerrey Considers Quitting 9/11 Panel

HeadlineFeb 27, 2004

The Daily News is reporting that former Senator Bob Kerrey is considering resigning from the 9/11 independent investigation board out of frustration from the White House’s efforts to block the panel access to top intelligence officials and materials. Kerrey said “I am no longer … feeling comfortable that I’m going to be able to read and process what I need in order to participate in writing a report about how it was that 19 men defeated every single defensive system the U.S. put up to kill 3,000 Americans on Sept. 11.”
