[Richard Forno]

It's been 40 years since passage of the mother of all information access
laws­the U.S. Freedom of Information Act. Given that March 11 marked the

light onto the growing recesses of government secrecy­U.S. News is again

the FOIA and its sister statute, the Privacy Act. Although the government
can be slow in getting back to you, the request process itself is pretty
straightforward.
