In this law WE THE PEOPLE have elected government officials and pay our taxes. With this said WE THE PEOPLE deserve to know what is going on in our country. This bill would end the blanket statements from the government to say things are classified. We deserve to know what truly happened in Miami, what you are keeping such a secret at area 51, and we should know information in real time just like intelligence agencies. Are there life saving technologies that the people doesn’t know about yet?
Most importantly when subpoena records for court purposes, we shouldn’t have to tolerate black out classified nonsense and we should be able to read documents with everything involved. Including CIA programs, FBI findings (like Epstien documents). This would also end the blanket term for government officials to say “for national security” without having reasonable evidence supporting that any act is truly for national security.
The only reason things need to be classified is if it involves war plans or something that would leave the American people in danger from forgien threats.
