I work as a contractor to the government because Fed hiring is nearly impossible in my little corner. It took me months to get a $1000 piece of equipment I need to start my job. So, I know how long it takes and you’re right. That being said, Ive taken all the FOIA trainings, and all the “blah blah” about the public’s right to know. 500 pages a month is not a serious answer, its dodging. EDIT: “ Let's assume for a moment that the FDA's rate of review is accurate (for the record, I think they are severely low-balling it)” significantly low balling it indeed

>500 pages a month is not a serious answer, its dodging. I agree. That's why I think the focus should be on holding them accountable to a badly formed review process. I think where we disagree is I also think the answer of "hire 100x the people" is an equally invalid answer. They know that's a non-starter as well. They know they won't be authorized to hire that many and they also know that even if they could, they wouldn't be spun up in time to meet the deadline. I'd personally rather see an IG/GAO investigation into their process.
