Our right to know
With closed doors, high fees, slow responses and increasing exemptions, all levels of government have increasingly stomped down on the public's access to information and press freedom. Fight for government transparency. Support independent media during Sunshine Week as we fight for greater accountability.

‘Chaos or not chaos’: Despite risks, many Chattanooga area governments don’t have AI policies
Most local and state governmental agencies in the region haven't enacted policies to govern employee use of artificial intelligence, which experts say could make oversight more difficult and introduce security and privacy risks, according to a survey of officials.
We believe all Alaska residents deserve to know how their elected officials are making decisions.
Our reporting couldn’t be possible without government transparency. This #SunshineWeek, consider making a gift towards our journalism that keeps officials accountable.

Alexander HowardMembers of the US #FOIA Advisory Committee took public comments & suggestions at the #SunshineFest today during #SunshineWeek, improving draft recommendations to improve the Freedom of Information Act: foia.blogs.archives.gov/2026/03/06/f... Open government in action! #OpenGov
Responses to Freedom of Information Act requests are often thwarted by high fees, slow responses or exemptions by local, state, and federal agencies.
During #SunshineWeek, call on your government to uphold our right to know!
The Justice Dept has taken down the “FOIA wizard” that it’s Office of Information Polocy built to make it easier for all Americans to exercise our right to know. It’s a symbol of this administration’s default to secrecy & opacity, versus its false claims of transparency. #SunshineWeek #SunshineFest
