Last December, a study published by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) found that the number of lawsuits to obtain documents sought through FOIA requests increased during President Obama's first term compared to last term of President Bush. This is particularly noteworthy because President Obama began his first term promising greater support for open government.
