SELECT COMMITTEE ON INTELLIGENCE
WASHINGTON. DC 205 10·M 75

SSCI# 2014-3514

December 10,2014

The Honorable Barack Obama
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20500
Dear Mr. President,
Yesterday the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence formally filed the
full version of its Study of the Central Intelligence Agency's Detention and
Interrogation Program with the Senate and publicly released the declassified
Executive Summary and Findings and Conclusions, as weii as the declassified
additional and minority views.
The full and final report is enclosed with this letter. It is divided into three
volumes, exceeds 6,700 pages, and includes over 37,700 footnotes.
As you said publicly on August 1, 2014, the CIA's coercive interrogation
techniques were techniques that "any fair-minded person would believe were
torture," and "we have to, as a country, take responsibility for that so that,
hopefully, we don't do it again in the future."
I strongly share your goal to ensure that such a program will not be
contemplated by the United States ever agai n and look forward to working with
you to strengthen our resolve against torture. Therefore, the full report should be
made available within the CIA and other components of the Executive Branch for
use as broadly as appropriate to help make sure that this experience is never
repeated. To help achieve that result, I hope you will encourage use of the full
report in the future development of CIA training programs, as well as future
guidelines and procedures for all Executive Branch employees, as you see fit.
