As co-sponsor Senator Cory Gardner (R-CO) said, “Once data has been published and made available to the public, it should remain available to the public.” Let’s see that this bill passes.
Script: Hi I’m calling to urge Senator … to support the Preserving Data in Government Act (S.960). This is a bill that would protect public data on Federal websites. Data that we paid for and that we have a right to access.
