Idaho Press Club files suit against Lt. Gov. McGeachin over indoctrination task force records Nicole Blanchard, The Idaho Statesman
Jul. 19 The Idaho Press Club on Monday filed suit to compel Lt. Gov. Janice McGeachin to release records pertaining to her education task force after her office repeatedly refused to fill local reporters public records requests.
According to a court filing from the Press Club, an association of Idaho journalists, McGeachin s office violated the state s public records act by redacting public information or refusing to release records in four separate requests filed by reporters. The filing also claims that McGeachin s office inappropriately tried to charge multiple news outlets fees for the same information, which violates the fee provisions of the public records act.
