“EPIC and a coalition of transparency advocates urged the Office of Management and Budget to comply with President Obama’s plan to promote open government. The OMB is expected to produce an open government plan, “describ[ing] how it will improve transparency.” However, OMB Has failed to act even as the Administration has urged other governments to adopt similar plans. “The failure is particularly troubling,” wrote the groups, “because OMB is an agency with a central oversight role on information policy, it has responsibility for implementation of this plan, and it often serves as the right hand of the President.” EPIC and others previously called on President Obama to address weaknesses in open government administration and support FOIA reform.”
