Congressional Republicans asked Social Security's Office of Inspector General (OIG) to see whether political appointees at Social Security were manipulating the agency's responses to Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests. OIG found no evidence of this.
I have no idea why the GOP would think there was a problem with political interference with FOIA requests at Social Security. However, there is a big FOIA problem at Social Security. FOIA requests at Social Security take forever! Months and even years can pass without a response. This isn't because of political interference. It's because of lack of resources. It's the same at other government agencies. FOIA is a mess but the problem isn't political.

I can attest to that.
In 2013 I made a FOIA request to SSA. After months with no response I did some Google research and called the SSA OGC...they referred me to the SSA 800 number. I called SSA...they referred me back to the OGC. This went on for many, many months. When many more weeks had passed with no response I called the OIG main office with the intention of speaking with Patrick O'Carrol or at least raise hell trying. Of course I didn't make it that far up the ladder BUT I did finally receive the information I had requested - - - roughly three weeks ago.
During my search on GOOGLE for help to get my ex lover whom will got divorced back, i came across this wonderful man called DR.AGBAZARA who did a nice job by helping me to get my divorced husband back within 48hours.. I never believe that such things like this can be possible but now i am a living testimony to it because AGBAZARA TEMPLE actually brought my lover back , If you are still doubting why not contact DR.AGBAZARA TEMPLE on email : (agbazara@gmail.com) or him on 2348104102662, Then i promise you that after 48hours you will have reasons to celebrate like me
