US Citizen Access Project

An interesting project based in the US:

"The goal of the Citizen Access Project is to allow citizens and public officials to better understand public access to local government information in all 50 states. Most of the funding for the project came from Orlando-based media executive Marion Brechner who established an endowment with a gift of $600,000"

Each state law access provision is rated by the MBCAP Sunshine Advisory Board (SAB) on a 7-point scale from laws that allow the most access to law that allow the least access.
