This is sent blind, I don't have the time right now to check out the web sites and I'm trusting my sources more than I like to, but... Apparently http://www.junkscience.com is advocating a provision that'd make federally funded science subject to lots of Freedom of Information Act issues. Unfortunately this would make things like participants in surveys public, things like that, that are a really bad idea. A Washington Post article about the Shelby Amendment should provide further reading.

such ridicule in place.
