The Freedom of Information Foundation of Texas will host its daylong state conference on Friday, Sept. 12, in Austin at the Hilton Austin.

Last year’s Bernard and Audre Rapoport State Conference was widely attended by journalists, government employees, attorneys and others interested in open government and First Amendment issues. So mark your calendars to participate in 2014. Registration information and announcements of speakers will be posted on the FOIFT website beginning in March.
