These comments from the ACLU address the Department of Homeland Security’s proposed rulemaking on Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests. The comments call on DHS to: Expressly prohibit issuance of false FOIA responses to a request deemed to be for exempted material; clarify that amateur and part-time journalists are also entitled to expedited processing of documents and fee waivers; require a more detailed notification to a requester seeking material deemed to be covered by certain exemptions to FOIA.
