Dear Friend of Press Freedom,

Join us on Friday, May 15, at 2 p.m. ET for “We’re working FOIAs: Former FOIA officials help explain how you can still get documents from the government ([link removed]) .”

In this live webinar, hosted by Freedom of the Press Foundation (FPF), we’ll be speaking with an esteemed group of former federal Freedom of Information Act officials. They’ll explain the current transparency landscape, give practical tips for journalists to win documents from agencies, tell you what to do when an agency prioritizes political interests over transparency, and say what they’d like to see happen to ensure FOIA works better in 10 years than it does right now.
RSVP NOW ([link removed])

* Bobak Talebian, former head of the Justice Department’s Office of Information Policy
* Ginger Quintero-McCall, partner and co-founder of the Free Information Group, and a former records specialist with the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the Federal Communications Commission, and the Department of Labor
