    This is not “press contacts” though.

    The FOIA is the “freedom of information act”, which is a legal resource people have to demand certain types of information from certain government institutions, and they are required to provide that information by law.

    It’s a basic necessity in a functioning democracy, to help monitor things like corruption.
