FOIA Post, Mar. 11, 2019
Thank you, Melanie, for that introduction and, as always, for your exemplary leadership on government transparency. I have now had the pleasure of working with you for more than two years on these issues, and I think this is the third Sunshine Week we have kicked off together. Thank you for your tireless and excellent work as a government leader on Freedom of Information Act policy and administration. The American people are fortunate to have you in their service.
The same holds true for the many professionals here today who have devoted their careers to government transparency. Welcome, all, to the Department of Justice. We are so pleased you could join us for the kick-off of this year’s Sunshine Week. This week is an opportunity for us to recognize the importance of transparency in government and the many contributions of civil servants dedicated to that goal.
