The Department of Health and Human Services plans to revamp its responses to public records requests to make it easier for people to obtain the information they seek, according to Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

“We’re restoring all the FOIA offices, and we’re going to make it much easier for people to get the information,” Kennedy said on April 22 at an unrelated news conference, about three weeks after the department fired the entire Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) office and workers from other FOIA divisions.
