Hi Taylor,

I hope this email finds you well. I have your request for "all emails sent to, from, or copied to Phil Mendelson from January 1, 2018 to Present day containing any of the following non-case-sensitive key-strings: 'FOIA' or 'Muckrock' or 'Amarel'[.]"

The term "FOIA" will be voluminous and bring in a significant amount of emails unrelated to your requests. Would you agree to eliminate that term from your search? Also, would you mind providing a date range for your search?
Best,
Brackett
