Goldberg testified about the Archives' own record distribution and highlighted the importance of the new Office of Government Information Services housed in the National Archives in assuring more timely and effective responses to FOIA requests as called for in the Open Government Act of 2007.
Goldberg represented the Sunshine in Government Initiative, of which ASNE is a member, in the appearance before the Subcommittee on Information Policy, Census and the National Archives of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee.
