Asked several democratic legislators for any emails that contained the word "confiscate" for the last quarter of 2013.

Simple yes? Simple no....see the reply I got today when I asked where the records were:

At this point, I am unable to give you a precise time frame for when the records will be available. Once responsive records are compiled, they will need to be reviewed by legal staff who will determine whether disclosure is legally appropriate. Although I cannot predict when this process will be complete, please be assured that we are working to respond to your request in a timely manner.

Sounds like they are working to delete such emails to me.
