A new lawsuit seeks to kill a recent Trump administration rule that critics say deals a blow to transparency by giving the Environmental Protection Agency broad authority to shoot down public information requests.
The new rule put in place without public input was published on the Federal Register June 26 and goes into effect July 26.
“This rule is a shameful attempt to keep Americans in the dark about the Trump administration’s sickening failures to protect our air, water, and wildlife,” said Meg Townsend, open government attorney with the Center for Biological Diversity. “We have a right to know what EPA is trying to hide and which Trump appointee is trying to hide it.”
