FBB Emails

To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Virginia Freedom of Information Act, I hereby request the following records:

Copies of all emails sent or received by Lt. Gov Winsome Earle-Sears that correspond with the following search parameters.

To or from the email address "familybesidethebadge@gmail.com"
Mentioning the keyphrase "familybesidethebadge@gmail.com"
Mentioning the keyphrase "Family Beside the Badge"

The timeframe is all responsive records since November 1, 2023.

In the event you deny or redact any information, please provide a detailed legal reasoning for each denial or redaction pursuant to Va. Code Sec. 2.2-3704(B).

Because I, the requestor, am a journalist, and I seek the information in order to disseminate it to the public, and because the information regards the safety, welfare, and legal rights of the general public, I request a fee waiver for this data. It is not for commercial benefit because I am a member of the nonprofit news media whose principal purpose is to access and disseminate information regarding the general public’s safety, welfare, and legal rights. To the extent you intend to assess any charges, please notify me to discuss first.

This request is filed by Tom Nash, a citizen of Virginia, in coordination with Sam Stecklow.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would 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 5 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Tom Nash, a citizen of Virginia, in coordination with Sam Stecklow.
