The Public Information Act Texas law gives you the right to access government records without government officials asking why you want them.
All government information is presumed to be available to the public.
Certain exceptions may apply to the disclosure of the information. Governmental bodies shall promptly release requested information that is not confidential by law or information for which an exception to disclosure has been sought. Include enough description and detail about the information requested to enable the governmental body to accurately identify and locate the items requested. Cooperate with the governmental body's reasonable efforts to clarify the type or amount of information requested. Keep appointments to inspect records or pick up copies, or risk losing the opportunity to see the information.
