  1. Even still I hope Gov Quinn do not sign the bill. It's good AJ explained his reasoning for supporting the bill. Not bad.

    First, what constitues "Commercial Enterprises"?

    Second, what government body is being hit with that many FOIA's and can't they anticipate the requests?

    Last, but certainly not least, if the government bodies believed in transparency and put this stuff on the web there wouldn't be a need for FOIA's.
