This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:

Such materials are described in ICE SOP 17.1 ("Talking points will be reviewed and biographies of the visiting media will be presented.")
I am a journalist, who has written about government transparency in a variety of publications, such as a the Boston Herald.

which have in turn been written about in national publications such as the Washington Post.
