To Whom It May Concern:
This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the list of Twitter accounts that Secretary Ryan Zinke's official account (@SecretaryZinke) has blocked. This can be gathered by going to "Settings and privacy" (https://twitter.com/settings/account) then "Blocked accounts" on the left-side menu.
I respectfully request that you waive all fees in connection with this request as provided by 5 U.S.C. § 552(a)(4)(A)(iii). It is in the public interest to know who and how many people the EPA administrator has chosen to block on a public communications platform that is used to promote official EPA activities. The Sierra Club is a national environmental nonprofit with no commercial interest in obtaining the requested information. Instead, our organization intends to analyze and disseminate the requested information free of charge so that the public can be better informed and meaningfully participate in government accountability and transparency.
In the event that there are fees, please inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,
Alexander Rony
