Southern Governor does not understand the concept of Waffle House

@Chris_D_Joseph @tegbridges @FOX8NOLA It will be so hard to regain transparency which is our right as citizens.
My story today at noon on the bill that would decimate public records access in Louisiana. Governor Landry questioned if taxpayers have the right to see records on how government decisions are made. @FOX8NOLA
The irony of being constantly ridiculed by a government that didn’t know its own rules is only dwarfed by the arrogance and condescension that is completely unearned: the public records bills this year all have a common theme: disdain for you and me and distrust that we are good.
"full confidence?"
.@rcfp is urging Ohio lawmakers to pass legislation that would allow courts to quickly dismiss frivolous lawsuits aimed at chilling reporting and other speech about matters of public concern. rcfp.org/briefs-comment…
"MuckRock has tracked new proposed legislation in Colorado & Kentucky and the future of public records laws in New Jersey, Utah & Arkansas. Last week, we looked at legislation in Louisiana that, if enacted, would limit public access." muckrock.com/news/archives/…
As #lalege considers gutting Louisiana's public records laws, here's a look at how instrumental they've been at exposing all kinds of big issues in the state. Would Ray Nagin have gone to prison if not for public records? Would we know about Ronald Greene? nola.com/news/politics/…

“These records are important to the @CalPoly community. The public has a right to know, and being patient was not enough. I had to take action.” Brava to our client @E1izabethWilson for taking a stand! sanluisobispo.com/news/local/edu…
Two bipartisan bills in Michigan could expand the state’s Freedom of Information Act to allow requests for documents in the governor’s office and the state legislature. muckrock.com/news/archives/…
It's been a few days since the launch, and the feedback on our KY Sunshine Law Library has been positive! Users from KY & across the country appreciate the open records & meetings resources available at their fingertips. Take a moment to see for yourself. kyopengov.org/law

This statement has the vibe of: don’t expect any records from us related to the child death in Boone. I know other reporters and I have filed FOIAs related to this. We do not need to report confidential info on children; we need confirmation CPS responds to calls.
It's been more than five business days since I filed a relatively narrow open records request with Louisville Metro Gov/@LouisvilleMayor regarding lobbying on HB 509. I sent a follow-up message Thursday asking when I could expect a response. I've heard not a peep, even still.
I took a bit of inspiration from records requests filed by @WPSDLocal6, @kyopengov & @_AustinHorn regarding HB 509 & Gov. Beshear's office. JCPS & Louisville Metro Gov both lobbied on HB 509. Neither told the Herald-Leader its position. So, I filed ORRs with both agencies.
