In what year was the Freedom of Information Act enacted?

• A. 1966
• B. 1980
• C. 1992
• D. 1974

Answer: (D)

This question tests your knowledge of when the Freedom of Information Act became law. The act was enacted in 1966, signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson, and it established the public’s right to access many federal records (subject to certain exemptions). The year 1974 is associated with later amendments to the act, not its original enactment, while 1980 and 1992 are not the year it was enacted. So the correct year the act was enacted is 1966.
