DESCRIPTION:

The Freedom of Information Act was signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson on July 4, 1966. It provides the public unprecedented access to government documents for a variety of purposes including research, journalism and law. It took 12 years for the landmark legislation to go from idea to law, thanks in large part to the dogged efforts of California Congressman John E. Moss.

National Sunshine Week is an awareness campaign focusing on the importance of the Freedom of Information Act and its contributions to accurate journalism. It is observed throughout the nation by media organizations, schools, universities and libraries and coupled with a public relations campaign. The event first appeared in 2005.

Sunshine week marks the birthday of James Madison, the father of the U.S. Constitution. He was born March 16, 1751,
