House Republican leaders have called on Debra Steidel Wall, acting archivist of the U.S., to answer questions about possible coordination with Democratic lawmakers in getting officials at the National Records Administration (NARA) to investigate former President Donald Trump‘s handling of presidential records.

House Oversight and Reform Committee ranking Republican Rep. James Comer of Kentucky and Ohio’s Rep. Jim Jordan, top Republican on the House Judiciary Committee, pressed Ms. Wall in a letter about NARA’s role ahead of the FBI’s Aug. 8 raid of Mr. Trump’s home at Mar-a-Lago in search of classified documents.

“Committee Republicans have learned that NARA’s actions initiated the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) criminal investigation against the former president the same day committee Democrats inquired about whether a referral to DOJ had been made,” Messrs. Comer and Jordan wrote.

“The possibility of NARA being pressured by committee Democrats to pursue the former president is troubling, and committee Republicans are concerned about NARA’s continued refusal to provide information about its role in the raid on the former president’s home,” they said.

In their letter, Mr. Jordan and Mr. Comer cited correspondence between House Democrats and NARA on Feb. 9. New York Democratic Rep. Carolyn Maloney, who chairs the Oversight Committee, wrote to NARA about their concerns regarding 15 boxes of presidential records stored at the former president’s home at Mar-a-Lago. Mr. Comer and Mr. Jordan said that, according to the correspondence, Ms. Maloney asked whether the archivist’s office had been in contact with Attorney General Merrick Garland on this matter.
