FOIA News: Plain language report considers agency FOIA pages
On January 9, 2023, the Center for Plain Language issued its 11th annual report card evaluating how well agencies follow the Plain Writing Act. The Center examined two online pages of 21 executive branch agencies: the main Contact Us page and the main FOIA request page. The Department of Agriculture’s FOIA page was singled out as “exemplary,” while the Department of Commerce’s FOIA page was described as one that “needs work.”
