There’s a new front in the struggle for religious liberty, says Brian Simboli: Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests.
FOIA’s implementation is broken, and defenders of religious liberty ought to seek ways to fix it. . . .
t would be extraordinarily naïve to assume that threats to religious liberty are going to diminish in coming decades. Religious institutions will have to seek ways to check government power and seek bureaucratic accountability. Improving our FOIA system now will prove a boon to religious bodies and other counter-cultural groups years into the future.
