[edit] Shapleigh's open records lawsuit against the TCEQ

"State Sen. Eliot Shapleigh, D-El Paso, emerged from the Travis County District Court Monday hopeful his request for confidential Asarco-related documents from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality would be granted soon.

“In our democracy the public has the right and duty to oversee public agencies. Public agencies that hide documents hide from public oversight. TCEQ cannot decide what the people have a right to know,” Shapleigh said."
