State Dept. Withheld Newly Released Clinton Classification Forms from Congress

By Published on November 10, 2015

Hillary Clinton faces new questions about her treatment of classified information after the discovery of her signature on forms acknowledging the consequences of mishandling sensitive material.

The “sensitive compartmented information nondisclosure agreement,” which was obtained by the Competitive Enterprise Institute late last week through the Freedom of Information Act, quickly touched off a debate about whether Clinton violated provisions outlining the treatment of classified information that wasn’t necessarily marked as such.

The nonprofit also obtained a “classified information” NDA, known as a Special Form 312, that was shared first with the Washington Free Beacon.

The Senate Judiciary Committee had asked for that NDA in early August, but was stonewalled by the State Department for months.

The agency did not give the committee a copy of the agreement, which Clinton signed upon entering office in 2009, until after it had released the form to the Competitive Enterprise Institute and a story about the form had run in the media, an aide told the Washington Examiner.
