Federal Research Public Access Act

The Federal Research Public Access Act (FRPAA) is a proposal to require open public access to research funded by eleven U.S. federal government agencies. It was originally proposed by Senators John Cornyn and Joe Lieberman in 2006[1] and then again in 2010, and then once more in 2012.[2]

A later version of the bill, the Fair Access to Science and Technology Research Act, was introduced in 2013, 2015 and 2017.[3]
