Documents from Sen. Hillary Clinton’s time as first lady are expected to be forwarded to former President Bill Clinton by Friday for review, the National Archives announced Wednesday.

The former president then has 30 days — unless he requests an extension — to review the 10,000 pages of his wife’s daily schedules before they are sent to the White House for its review, archives spokeswoman Susan Cooper told the Associated Press.
