Department of Justice Celebrating Transparency
War is peace
The Justice Department plans to celebrate the government's "significant improvements" in administering the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) even though a majority of federal agencies, including the Justice Department itself, have ignored the Obama administration's transparency guidelines.
The Justice Department will mark the fourth anniversary of Attorney General Eric Holder's 2009 memorandum to federal agencies instructing them to revise their FOIA regulations and adopt a presumption in favor of openness, according to a press release. - See more at: http://freebeacon.com/a-foia-fiesta/#sthash.zqDVzcTK.dpuf
