Arkansas' Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) allows Arkansans to access public records. It was signed into law in 1967, a year after President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the federal Freedom of Information Act. The act also requires public meetings at the state or local levels to be held in public.

The Arkansas Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) allows the public (?citizens?) to inspect and receive copies of public records of governmental agencies unless the law makes an exception for them. The law also requires that most meetings of ?governing bodies? be open to the public.

Congress passed the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) in 1966 and later amended it. The FOIA gives U.S. citizens the right to access federal agency records so they can understand their government's operations and activities.

§§ 25-19-101 to 25-19-110, ?any citizen of the State of Arkansas? may inspect and copy public records unless the records are specifically exempted from disclosure. The term ?citizen? includes a corporation doing business in the state. A requestor's purpose or motive in seeking access to records is usually immaterial.

All Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests must be directed to the Department of Transformation and Shared Services Legal Office. Requests may be submitted by email, fax, or mail. Once you have filed a request, you will receive an initial response acknowledging that TSS has received it.
