During my time working in DC, I enjoyed visiting the U.S. National Archives and Records Administration our nation's record keeper.
I was very fortunate to learn early on that my USIA office was conveniently located near the archives, an Independent agency of the United States government which preserves and provides access to federal records. It is also tasked with increasing public access to those documents which make up the National Archive. It is traveling through history. https://catalog.archives.gov/
NARA is officially responsible for maintaining and publishing the legally authentic and authoritative copies of acts of Congress, presidential directives, and federal regulations. #NARA also transmits votes of the Electoral College to Congress. It also examines Electoral College and Constitutional amendment ratification documents for prima facie legal sufficiency and an authenticating signature.
The National Archives, and its publicly exhibited Charters of Freedom, which include the original United States Declaration of Independence, United States Constitution, United States Bill of Rights, and many other historical documents, is located in its headquarters at the National Archives Building in Washington, D.C.
