Citizen Advocacy Center urges challenge to bill that would change FOIA guidelines

The Citizen Advocacy Center is urging people, especially journalists and public watch dogs, to contact their state senators to urge them to vote against HV 3796.

According to the CAC’s web site, HB 3796, is “problematic” and was only introduced last Friday afternoon.  It  passed the House on Memorial Day, and will pass the Senate TODAY to the Senate sponsors, who expect a unanimous vote.  Complete details and links to contact information for state senators can be found at http://www.citizenadvocacycenter.org/cac-blog/urgent-legislative-alert-call-your-representatives-in-springfield-to-oppose-passage-of-hb3796
