Dear Ms. Haynes,

I reiterate Mr. sontag's request here except to say I do not invoke the 
FOIA, but rather I invoke the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, Title 
II, subpart E, and the Auxiliary Aids and Services provisions of Section 504 
of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.. Note, a failure to respond is a civil 
rights violation in and of itself and a failure of timely response violates 
Tyler v. Manhatten, just to name one case law consideration of this matter.

Regardless Cannon recorded this last meeting. His recordings are and should 
be made available under the FOIA, the ADA, and 504 just to name a few laws.

Now, Cannon is famous for claiming access and for fighting for disability 
rights.

Don't we all think it is time for this son of a gun to deliver on both 
accounts?

Sincerely,

Joe Harcz
