    Case No.: F-2018-04736


    Segment: H-0001

    Mr. David N. Bossie


    Citizens United
    1006 Pennsylvania Ave., S.E.
    Washington, DC 20003

    Dear Mr. Bossie:

    I refer you to our letter dated July 21, 2020, regarding the review of certain Department of State
    material under the Freedom of Information Act (the “FOIA”), 5 U.S.C. § 552. A duplicate
    version of record C06679743 was inadvertently released to you in the production of July 21,
    2020, with cadre number C06762743. For consistency, enclosed please find the same version of
    the record with the intended cadre number C06679743.

    An enclosure explains the FOIA exemptions and other grounds for withholding material. Where
    we have made excisions, the applicable exemptions are marked on each document. In some
    cases, two or more exemptions may apply to the same document. All non-exempt responsive
    material that is reasonably segregable from the exempt material has been released, and is
    enclosed.

    If you have any questions, your attorney may contact Trial Attorney Johnny Hillary Walker, III,
    at (202) 252-2575 or [email protected]. Please refer to the case number, F-2018-04736,
    and civil action number, 1:18-cv-01862, in all communications about this case.

    Sincerely,

    Susan C. Weetman
    Deputy Director
    Office of Information Programs and Services
