The Pennsylvania Right-to-Know Law
The Right-to-Know Law (RTKL) - Pennsylvania's open records statute - provides for swift access to governmental records throughout the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. This important transparency law helps enable citizens, the media and others to hold government agencies accountable by providing access to public. Having written three editions of the legal treatise on the RTKL and having previously served as the Assistant Chief Counsel for the Office of Open Records, Attorney J. Chadwick Schnee is a leading authority on this open records statute.
