EPA and FOIA

Another scandal for Obama administration? The EPA waives fees for leftist environmental groups under Freedom of Information Act, but not for conservative groups who sometimes have to go to court to get information. IRS, DoJ, WH, State, now EPA. Who's next? http://www.bizjournals.com/bizjournals/washingtonbureau/2013/05/14/conservative-group-accuses-epa-of.html

Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI) found that the EPA waived fees on 75 out of 82 FOIA requests made by environmental groups such as the Natural Resources Defense Council and Greenpeace. But it denied fee waivers on 14 of CEI’s 15 FOIA requests. Other conservative groups also were often denied fee waivers, according to CEI.
