U.S. Chamber secures financial settlement from Federal Trade Commission after successfully suing the Commission for its inadequate response to Freedom of Information Act requests
October 03, 2024
The case was brought upon the Commission for its denial of lawful requests for public information under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) that were essential to understanding the Commission’s operations.
All four Chamber complaints in the lawsuit resulted in the FTC turning over hundreds of pages of documents, including revelations that exposed collusive outreach by the FTC to foreign agencies as well as the agency’s dubious efforts to stockpile “zombie votes”.
