Protecting
the public's right to know
The Freedom of Information Foundation
of Texas works to encourage, sponsor
and facilitate a greater appreciation, knowledge and understanding
of the First Amendment. Ensuring that the public's business
is conducted in public, the FOIFT has successfully
helped citizens access government meetings and documents that
should be a matter of public record.
Since
1978, the Foundation's goal has been to educate media and
legal professionals, educators, students, public and business
officials and individual citizens about their rights and responsibilities
as citizens in our democracy.
With the clear objective to protect and preserve the state's
open meetings and open records laws,
the Foundation acts as
a statewide information clearinghouse and offers guidance
and assistance on FOI-related issues through a network of
attorneys.
The
FOIFT is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) supported through grants and
tax-deductible donations from private citizens, corporations
and foundations.
