Eight conservative leaders have endorsed the OPEN Government Act designed to bring changes to the implementation of the Freedom of Information Act, The Heritage Foundation’s Mark Tapscott reports. The eight sent a letter of support to Sen. John Cornyn (R-Tx), the bill’s lead sponsor saying that as government grows ever larger, acces to information becomes more important. FOIA, they said is today “too often abused or ignored by government employees at all levels.” (8/17/05)
