Not like you couldn't see this coming, but the state's new open records office is letting people know what's at stake if its budget is slashed -- as, apparently, is likely given the state's budget deficit.
Every agency can (and I'm sure will) protest budget cuts and even ask for more money. But the open records office makes the point that it's just starting out, just beginning to set the tone for what was expected to be a new era of openness in Pennsylvania government. Going backward, the office says, could be devastating, particularly to its ability to hear appeals in a timely manner.
