Congressional Research Service reports found this week

The Congressional Research Service (CRS) is a research agency for the U.S. Congress and writes reports at their request. This is NOT a complete list of recent reports, only members of Congress have access to a complete list, but these are reports requested from Congress by members of the public, like you. If you want to request a report, just talk to your local Representative or Senator. This week brings us the following series of CRS reports, courtesy of Secrecy News and OpenCRS:
