Seth Kaplan by Seth Kaplan 0 comments

Julie Hirschfeld Davis, winner of NPF’s 2009 Everett McKinley Dirksen Awards for Distinguished Reporting of Congress, was featured on C-SPAN’s Washington Journal earlier this week.  Davis is currently a reporter for the Associated Press and has covered Congress and the White House for over ten years.

While on Washington Journal, Davis talked about the Library of Congress’ and the Clinton Presidential Library’s recent release of documents written by Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan.  She also gave analysis on what the release of these documents will mean for in Kagan’s upcoming confirmation hearings.  Watch the whole segment below:
