Senators Patrick Leahy (D-VT) and John Cornyn (R-Tx) have introduced legislation aimed at making legislation more transparent when new Exemption 3 statutes are created. This proposal was in last year's FOIA amendments passed by the Senate but was stripped out in the House version of the bill. Sen. Leahy's press release can be found here.
Of course, and I know I sound like a broken record, but there is no mention of adequately funding FOIA Offices anywhere in Sen. Leahy's press release.
