“Birdie: By North Carolina Attorney General Roy Cooper, for clearly and concisely clearing up the state treasurer’s faulty interpretation of the North Carolina Public Records Law...Here’s Cooper’s quick and straightforward advocacy for the cause of open government: ‘North Carolina has some of the strongest public records laws in the nation, and the interpretation of those laws should favor openness.’ Cooper, who as a legislator championed many of those Public Records laws, knows that open government is good government. Thanks to this thoughtful public servant for making sure that the state’s business is conducted out in the sunshine.”
