[edit] Experts: Right to Know law protects lawmakers' e-mail

"Several Right-to-Know law advocates say they believe legislators who turned down a request for their electronic correspondence correctly interpreted the state statute, but some also say the law may need to be clarified.

State Rep. Jim Garrity, R&D-Atkinson, who chairs the state's Right-to-Know Oversight Commission, said he agreed with the response to a March 27 Sunday Citizen Right to Know request. The response came in the form of two letters, one written by House Counsel David Frydman and the other by Senate Counsel Jeffrey Meyers."
