Isn't there a new Right to Know Law in Pennsylvania?
Yes. On February 14, 2008, Governor Rendell signed Act 3 of 2008 into law, which is a complete overhaul of the Right to Know Law. Although some provisions take effect immediately (those establishing an Open Records Office) and others take effect on July 1, 2008 (requiring state-related institutions to make certain financial information public and requiring the on-line posting of state contract information), the bulk of the new law takes effect on January 1, 2009. You can find the new law here: [Senate Bill 1]
