Hereâs one: an agency tried charging $200 for a screenshot of a FB page bc they argued it required significant tech knowledgede. We sued. They hired an expert. Lol. They obviously lost big time
But this bill would make it impossible to challenge such nonsense
Lots of issues with the bad OPRA bill, one of which is that a service fee will be âpresumed to be reasonableâ and thus impossible to challenge. So, weigh in with your absurd service charges here. Agencies will 100% use them to stop access if they know they canât be challenged
The Assembly hasnât taken any action on the OPRA bill yet. And itâs looking more and more like any member who votes for it wonât have the Line to protect them from a primary challenger next yearâŚ

The past few weeks have had us split between constant e-mails and Zooms about drafts and strategies in several very active lawsuits -- and also building and debugging code for a new 18 million record mini-site we hope to launch soon, from data that we won in an earlier lawsuit.
*pounds table* ONE OF US! ONE OF US!

The @SixthFlrMuseum should not be able to decide who gets a copy of the #ZapruderFilm in the @USNatArchives. The public should have unrestricted access to public records. Thanks for your interest in this case! #FOIA #jfk #zapruder
NEW: Just in time for #SunshineWeek! I'm launching a weekly #FOIA newsletter for @business called FOIA Files where I will challenge govt secrecy & unshroud the documents recalcitrant agencies preferred never saw the light of day.Â

We filed papers today in one of our several ongoing #FOIA cases.
We argued that an agency which admits it has a database is certainly capable of producing that database, or at least a subset of its fields -- in opposition to an agency which claims this is just impossible. đ
