luceth writes "Several years ago, the US National Institutes of Health instituted a policy whereby publications whose research was supported by federal funds was to be made freely accessible a year after publication. The rationale was that the public paid for the research in the first place. This policy is now threatened by legislation introduced by, you guessed it, a Congresswoman who is the largest recipient of campaign contributions from the scientific publishing industry."
