Reading Rooms
The Institute frequently relies on the Freedom of Information Act and the First Amendment to seek and, where necessary, litigate for access to official documents that we believe would improve the public’s ability to understand government conduct and policy. Our Reading Rooms present these documents in a way that makes them easier to search, understand, and analyze.
