Fax

To Whom It May Concern:

I am a student at Tulane University in New Orleans, LA, conducting research about lobbying initiatives against high-speed rail projects in the United States.

Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, I hereby request the following records:
(1) E-mails sent from or received by Representative John “Jake” Ellzey Sr. (R-TX 6th District) containing one or more of the following keywords: “Southwest,” “SW,” “SWA,” “rail,” “railway,” “Texas Central,” or “Amtrak” from 2012 to Present Day. The search should include both interdepartmental and external communications from Congressman Ellzey’s government issued e-mail account.
(2) E-mails sent from or received by Representative Michael Thomas McCaul (R-TX 10th District) containing one or more of the following keywords: “Southwest,” “SW,” “SWA,” “rail,” “railway,” “Texas Central,” or “Amtrak” from 2012 to Present Day. The search should include both interdepartmental and external communications from Congressman McCaul’s government issued e-mail account.

If this request is unclear, please contact me to allow revisions rather than deny the request. Similarly, if the requested data are available only in part, please fulfill the portion of the request that is available rather than denying it in full. For example, notes or reports are available/subject to release but personal identifying information are not, reply with the report summary and omit sensitive information.

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 20 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Claire Henry
