Summary
Provides background on the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), which guarantees public access to existing, identifiable, unpublished, executive branch agency records. Analyzes and provides side-by side comparison of S. 337, the FOIA Improvement Act of 2015, and H.R. 653, the FOIA Act, both to amend FOIA for the purpose of increasing public access. Also reviews similar legislative activity in the 113th Congress.
