American Oversight – Declaration in Support of Ongoing FOIA Litigation Against U.S. State Department

American Oversight submitted this declaration in support of ongoing litigation over the State Department’s egregious FOIA-processing delays. The declaration — in support a January 2022 lawsuit brought by the Yale Law School Media Freedom and Information Access Clinic on behalf of Prof. Ryan Scoville of Marquette University Law School — recounts American Oversight’s experiences with the department and how these lengthy delays have hindered the organization’s mission to educate the public on matters of urgent concern.
