"Acting Solicitor of the Department of the Interior Robert Anderson was pressed by members of both parties Tuesday over how he would handle public records requests if confirmed to the position on a permanent basis.
Anderson faced questions from multiple members of the Senate Energy Committee over Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, with lawmakers repeatedly calling for transparency from the administration.
Ranking Member John Barrasso (R-Wyo.) questioned Anderson about what he described as reports that Biden administration officials have used encrypted messaging apps for government business, the subject of a letter Barrasso sent Secretary Deb Haaland."
