I guess my concern is if we are going about this new classification, how many rules and regulations are we going to eliminate?

But according to your testimony, you said it should be based on statutory exemptions in FOIA or other applicable laws, policies, and regulations.

Thank you for your continued work on this.

I don't know how long China can go on censoring in the age of information and yet progress with its economy.
