FOIA Generator

Michigan Press Association FOIA Generator
The MPA Freedom of Information Act Letter Generator

A couple of notes about this form:

  • It does not mail the letter for you.
  • It generates a basic Freedom of Information Act request for Michigan public bodies (i.e., state and local offices).
  • No information you submit is saved; this is a JavaScript form, the information never leaves your browser, so your privacy is protected.
  • For a federal FOIA form generator, visit the Reporters' Committee for Freedom of the Press
