Yes, this is interesting. Opening the way for more junk science to be accepted as real science (as if it doesn't get enough coverage already).

Sounds to me like the only reason the government wouldn't want this law to pass is that they want to pick and choose what research they make public. Research that doesn't reach the "right" conclusions is buried, and that that supports the agenda is released. The most effective tactic this author used in making his argument was to throw George Soros' name in it to get people worked up, even though George Soros has nothing to do with the proposed law. I for one want all taxpayer funded research made public unless there are good national security reasons for keeping it secret.
