The email exchange indicates Cardona was more involved with the letter’s creation than previously known. 

President Biden’s Department of Justice relied on the NSBA letter, which suggested using the Patriot Act against parents, in creating its own memo directing the FBI to mobilize in support of local education officials.

Previous emails had revealed that the NSBA was in contact with the White House and Justice Department in the weeks before it publicly sent the letter. 

The emails were obtained by the parents group Parents Defending Education in a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.
