This is Sunshine Week, a nationwide celebration of free press and open government. As a way to shine the light brighter, a New York state assemblymember from the Hudson Valley has introduced two bills to amend the Open Meetings Law and the Freedom of Information Law.
The New York Coalition for Open Government, a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization dedicated to transparency in government, celebrated Sunshine Week, in part, by recognizing National Freedom of Information Day March 16. Democratic state Assemblymember Amy Paulin of Scarsdale joined a virtual press conference the day before.
“It’s time has come,” says Paulin. “There’s no question that during this pandemic everyone has learned to adjust and to do things differently, and what we’re changing is a reflection of that.”
