If NARA isn't enforcing, I'm sure it's not because they are "lax," but
rather they lack the staff to do enforcement, as well as backing from
"higher." As we well know, if our RM policies aren't backed up by higher

Pennsylvania: an "Open Records Czar" was appointed by the governor, but
then shut out of enforcement by that very same governor's office:
