Answer:

Among the options shown here, the right answer is Washington refused "to allow House members to review diplomatic correspondence related to the signing of Jay´s Treaty."

Step-by-step explanation:

Many presidents have used executive privilege to deny documents requested by Congress investigations , often quoting national security concerns or keeping the privacy of White House deliberations. George Washington set the first precedent.
