Dear Federal Freedom of Information Act Administrators with the U.S. Government in Washington, D.C.,
I am hereby appealing in writing the alleged apparent failure by U.S. Congressman Lloyd Doggett, a Democrat, to send me any reply letter or any reply e-mail letter in response to my December 8, 2019-dated e-mail public-information request (last item below, LEGAL DOCUMENT "B") that was specifically addressed to himself.
I have repeatedly and politely over a multi-week period contacted the Austin office of Congressman Doggett ---- my current duly-elected current congressman representing me in the U.S. House of Representatives --- to inquire about the current status on my December 8, 2019, public-information request.
A female staff member of his in Austin, Texas, assured me on the telephone in mid-January 2020 that Congressman Doggett did, in fact, receive my public-information request, and that he would e-mail me his reply letter, she indicated to me.
In connection with this written appeal, I am also sending to you (first item, LEGAL DOCUMENT "A", directly below) a copy of January 17, 2020, follow-up correspondence of mine with Congressman Doggett that refers to a December 21, 2007, signed reply letter I received from Republican Congressman Michael McCaul of Westlake Hills, Texas, during a prior time period when I resided in McCaul's congressional district. LEGAL DOCUMENT "A" also contains the full exact text of my December 10, 2007, public-information request to Congressman McCaul.
I HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU SOON ABOUT THIS LEGAL MATTER.
Sincerely and Best Wishes,
John Kevin McMillan.

January 17, 2020
Dear Courtney,
Thank you for indicating to me on the phone this Thursday afternoon that a staff member Congressman Doggett has definitely located my December 8, 2019-dated public-information request to himself, and that Congressman Doggett (correction on name was inserted here by me, JKM, on February 20, 2020) will send me a reply e-mail letter in the near future, you politely indicated.
In regard to my statement to you during our conversation this Thursday that when I submitted a public-information request to Congressman Michael McCaul earlier this century during a prior period when I resided in McCaul's congressional district, McCaul replied in writing in 2007 that he declined to send me any of the documents he had on file that each directly referred to me.
For more information about that, please note, below, the full text of a blog of mine about McCaul's reply that I wrote and posted on Monday, December 15, 2014, at my personal blogsite of http://www.johnkevinmcmillan.blogspot.com :

U.S. CONGRESSMAN MICHAEL MCCAUL, MY DULY ELECTED REPRESENTATIVE IN THE U.S. HOUSE, IN A DECEMBER 21, 2007, SIGNED OFFICIAL REPLY LETTER TO ME STATES THAT REP. MCCAUL REFUSES TO PROVIDE ME WITH ANY OF THE DOCUMENTS ON FILE WITH ANY OF HIS CONGRESSIONAL OFFICES IN TEXAS AND D.C. THAT ARE IN FACT RESPONSIVE TO MY DEC. 10, 2007, FEDERAL FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT REQUEST IN WHICH I HAD SOUGHT DOCUMENTS FROM HIM REFERRING TO MYSELF OR TO MY ONE-MEMBER (MYSELF ONLY) AND NON-CHRISTIAN AND FULLY INDEPENDENT, ANTI-ALCOHOL, ANTI-TOBACCO, AND ANTI-MARIJUANA PROGRESSIVE PROHIBITIONIST RELIGION
(EDITOR'S NOTE: THE DEC. 10, 2007, FEDERAL FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT REQUEST THAT I WROTE AND SUBMITTED TO MY DULY ELECTED CONGRESSMAN AT THAT TIME, U.S. REPRESENTATIVE MICHAEL MCCAUL, SPECIFICALLY STATED IN WRITING THAT THE SCOPE OF MY PUBLIC-INFORMATION REQUEST INCLUDED: "a January 24, 2007-dated official reply letter to yourself (Congressman McCaul), with 'Attn: Kris Parker' having been added just before the actual text of that letter-----a letter that referred to myself, John K. McMillan of Austin, and that was written and signed by Mr. Michael A. Battle, Director of the Executive Office for United States Attorneys of the United States Department of Justice in Washington, D.C.)
----- Forwarded Message -----
To: Congressman Michael McCaul, United States House of Representatives, United States Congress, Washingon, D.C.
December 25, 2007
Dear Congressman McCaul,
Thank you for your December 21, 2007-dated and signed reply letter to my recent Federal Freedom of Information Act request----a reply letter on your behalf, addressed to myself at my cited residential address in Austin, that was signed by Kris Parker, Constituent Services Coordinator for yourself, who is based in Austin, Texas.
Your December 21-dated reply letter to myself states, and I quote verbatim from the second paragraph and third paragraph your three-paragraph reply letter:
"The Freedom of Information Act applies only to agencies of the United States as defined therein. The Act specifically excludes Congress from its definition of an agency. See 5 U.S.C. 551a(1), 552(f). This exclusion is grounded in separation of powers concerns as well as Congress' constitutional immunities from outside questioning and interference. Accordingly, the Congressman is not subject to the Act and must decline to produce the information you requested.
"Thank you for your attention.
"Sincerely,
"Kris Parker "Constituent Services Coordinator."
Congressman McCaul, I would like to respectfully pose two hopefully-polite follow-up questions to yourself:
(1) During your entire multi-term tenure in the United States Congress, have you ever at any time provided ANY other constituent of yours anywhere in Texas with any photocopies of any documents fitting the description that that particular constituent provided you through a Federal Freedom of Information Act-authorized request he or she had initiated?
(2) Are you aware that Congressman Lloyd Doggett of the Austin area and United States Senator Edward Kennedy of Massachusetts have each sent me respective reply letters in recent years in response to separate Federal Freedom of Information requests of mine, and that each of those respective members of Congress stated to me in their reply letter to myself that they have no documents responsive to my Federal Freedom of Information request, and that neither of those two respective members of the U.S. Congress cited any exemption from the law on their part in their response to my public-information request.
Thank you again for your December 21, 2007-dated and signed reply letter, which I received from the U.S. Postal Service at my residential mailbox in northwest Austin on Christmas Eve, December 24.
I hope that your Holiday Season and New Year prove to be joyous and creatively fulfilling for yourself and all of your law-abiding constituents.
Sincerely and Best Wishes,
John Kevin McMillan,

December 10, 2007
Dear Congressman McCaul,
This is a Federal Freedom of Information Act request in which I seek to obtain from yourself a photocopy of any and all letters, reports, notes, E-mail communications, memoranda, pieces of legislation you sponsored or contemplated sponsoring, computer records, published documents, handwritten messages, or any other items that, in each such case, refers at least once to myself, John Kevin McMillan, in any manner or any way, and/or refers at least once to my Progressive Prohibitionist Religion or Progressive (Prohibitionist) Religion, in any manner or any way, and that, in each such case, has been received or stored or generated or authored or written or noted or compiled or published or printed or word-processed at any time since January 1, 2005, by any staff member or official --- including yourself, Congressman McCaul ---- who is or was situated at or employed at any of your various congressional offices, including your office in Washington, D.C., your office in Austin, your office in Houston, your office in Tomball, Texas, and your office in Brenham, Texas.
Included in the scope of this Freedom of Information request are the June 18, 2007-dated official reply letter to myself, John K. McMillan of Austin, that was signed by "Kris Parker, Casework Manager" for yourself; a January 24, 2007-dated official reply letter to yourself, with "Attn: Kris Parker" having been added just before the actual text of that letter-----a letter that referred to myself, John K. McMillan of Austin, and that was written and signed by Mr. Michael A. Battle, Director of the Executive Office for United States Attorneys of the United States Department of Justice in Washington, D.C.; a January 31, 2007-dated and signed official reply letter to myself that was written and signed by yourself, Congressman Michael McCaul; a January 8, 2007-dated and signed official reply letter to myself that was written and signed by yourself, Congressman McCaul; a November 29, 2006-dated and signed official reply letter from yourself that also contains your signature; and the November 27, 2006-dated reply E-mail letter to myself on your behalf that cited a district intern of yours named "Jennifer Johnson" as the apparent author or co-author of that reply E-mail letter to myself, John Kevin McMillan of Austin.
SPECIFICALLY EXCLUDED from the scope of this public-information request are any and all items that were written by myself, John Kevin McMillan, or that were initially provided to you by myself, John Kevin McMillan.
My legal name is John Kevin McMillan, and I am a law-abiding and gainfully employed single adult male constituent of yours. I have never been married at any time in my entire life thus far.
Also, I have resided alone for the vast majority of my adult life thus far. In fact, I have never myself lived in the same residence with another person for more than nine consecutive months at any time during my entire adulthood thus far.
.... I was born on April 27, 1957, at Lincoln, Nebraska. I have resided at 11411 Research Boulevard, Apt. 325, Austin, Texas, 78759, ever since early 2002. My residential phone number throughout the entire period since early 2002 has always been: (512) 342-2295. My E-mail addresses in the period since January 1, 2004, have been: jkmcmil@texas.net and, more recently, mcmillanj@att.net . The only E-mail address for myself that I use at present is mcmillanj@att.net.
Among the insights and findings that I hope to glean through this Freedom of Information Act request are:
---Does Congressman McCaul have any evidence indicating any intrusive or manipulative involvement in my own life or life circumstances by any media company, civic group, religious group, educational institution, government agency, business entity, or any other entity of any type?
----Does Congressman McCaul have any evidence indicating that I myself have been subjected to any anonymous communications, any fraudulent communications, or any obscene verbalized communications in any context impinging on my own privacy rights?
----Has Congressman McCaul had any communications with the Travis County District Attorney's Office in Austin, Texas, in regard to the "John McMillan" criminal-law file that was officially established by paralegal Norma Hilbig of that DA's Office's Strategic Prosecution Division in January of 2006, with Ms. Hilbig emphasizing to myself over the telephone in 2006 that that very same criminal-law file would be used for my own benefit, and would be consulted by Travis County District Attorney Ronald Earle in Austin in the event that any person ever at any future time allegedly commits a felony crime in any context victimizing myself, John Kevin McMillan of Austin.
----Does Congressman McCaul concur with the emphatically stated view of a State Bar of Texas member, University of Texas at Austin Law School Alumnus John F. Campbell of Campbell & Morgan Law Firm, who stated to me one day in the late 1990s during an in-person consultation I had with Mr. Campbell inside his downtown Austin law firm during a period in which his legal services were paid in part by the Westlake Hills-based Texas Legal Protection Plan legal-aid service in which I have been a dues-paying member ever since 1997, that "if there is indeed an ongoing verbal harassment of yourself (John K. McMillan of Austin) somehow occurring in Austin these days, such as might occur from the use of sophisticated electronic or media technology, that would comprise adequate proof for myself, attorney John F. Campbell, that someone is trying to kill (sic) you (sic), John (sic)!" (approximate quote), attorney John F. Campbell suddenly declared to myself with emphasis as he sat across from me at a conference table during a two-person meeting we had that day inside his law firm office.
----Does Congressman McCaul agree with my own emphatic view, and with the view as well of an ear nose and throat specialist in northwest Austin, Dr. David Tobey, whom I consulted a few years ago about the matter, that persistent and year-round noise pollution in Austin, Texas, ever since I moved back to Austin in mid-March of 1997, most recently, has been significantly injurious to my own medical health, including to my own hearing capacity, in particular.
---Does Congressman McCaul have any reason to believe that any government-owned institution or any government agency at any level of government, possibly including at the federal level, may possibly have wronged myself, John K. McMillan, in any noteworthy manner at any time?
---Does Congressman McCaul have any evidence indicating that any private-sector institution, such as non-profit religious group or some other non-profit organization, may have allegedly abrogated the authority of one or more law-enforcement agencies by subjecting myself, John Kevin McMillan, to circumstances and "living conditions" that allegedly comprised a defacto form of incarceration or a defacto form of punishment or a defacto form of litigation against myself, or a defacto form of criminal-prosecution of myself, each without any formal allegation against myself at any time.
----Does Congressman McCaul have any evidence indicating that my due-process Constitutional rights, my freedom of speech legal rights, my freedom of association legal rights, my freedom of religion legal rights, or my freedom of assembly legal rights, among other legal or Constitutional rights of mine, were violated in any way by any entity or business enterprise?
---Does Congressman McCaul concur with my own emphatic view and legal position that partly because I am myself morally and aesthetically straight and observably masculine and facially cleanshaven and clean-talking and tattoo-less and jewelry-less and platonically polite and politely aggressive and civil and law-abiding, all without any prior addiction on my part to any illicit drug or alcohol or tobacco product, I have a legal right to pursue a life in which I exhibit a lawful form of heterophilia in regard to which adult men, in particular, I am most likely to myself be politely inclusive toward and friendly and generous toward in my own overall life and career.
---Does Congressman McCaul have any evidence indicating that any gay media company or any gay group or any gay militants, or any gay- or lesbian- or transsexual-dominated terrorist organization of any type, has allegedly stalked or verbally harassed or allegedly tortured or otherwise wronged myself, John Kevin McMillan, in any way?
----Does Congressman McCaul have any evidence indicating that any government-owned institution or any private-sector employer or corporation, or any individual, has failed in any way to fully acknowledge that I myself, John Kevin McMillan, am consistently law-abiding; honest; honorable; friendly and cheerful and naturally generous toward a wide range of people; conscientious; talented; intelligent; intellectually motivated, psychologically healthy; medically healthy; and athletically talented.
Thank you in advance, Congressman McCaul, for your prompt and very helpful reply letter in response to this Freedom of Information request from myself.
Sincerely and Best Wishes,
John Kevin McMillan,
11411 Research Boulevard, Apt. 325, Austin, Texas, 78759.

Dear Congressman Doggett,
This is a public-information request in which I see to obtain from you a copy of any and all e-mail communications or other written communications that you or any member of your staff at your Washington, D.C., office or at your Austin, Texas, office have authored or generated or produced or sent or mailed or forwarded or FAXed or received at any time since June 21, 2019, that each refer at least once in any manner to myself, John Kevin McMillan of Austin, Texas.
EXCLUDED from the scope of this public-information request are any and e-mails that I myself exclusively wrote, or that I forwarded to you.
This public-information request was prompted in part by the surprising absence of any reply note to me from you at any time during the applicable time period for this public-information request.
My legal name is John Kevin McMillan. My date of birth is April 27, 1957. I am a native of Lincoln, Nebraska.
I have resided in Austin, Texas, on a continuous and uninterrupted basis ever since mid-March 1997.
I have resided ever since June 21, 2019, as a rent-paying official tenant in a solo-occupancy efficiency apartment unit at an apartment complex inside your congressional district. I might add that I have also previously resided here in Austin in a congressional district for which you were my duly-elected representative in the U.S. House of Representatives during that prior time period.
To assist you in your response to this public-information request, I am offering you courtesy copies of two respective e-mail letters that I wrote and directly addressed to you and sent to you in the time period applicable to this request:

Subject: Fw: 11-30-19 urgent question to Title V Sexual Violence Prevention Administrator
To: United States Congressman Lloyd Doggett of Austin, Texas.
December 4, 2019
Dear Congressman Doggett,
As you of course already know, I am a single-by-choice, longtime-celibate-by-choice, gainfully-employed, permanently-drinking-alcohol-free, permanently marijuana-free and anti-marijuana-minded, permanently illicit-drug-free, dependably civil and law-abiding and honest, Anglo adult senior-citizen male constituent of yours residing in north Austin. I myself do not have any criminal-conviction record, as I'm very sure you also know.
I mention this partly because you and I are each very honorable alumni of Stephen F. Austin High School of Austin Independent School District, and I'm sure you take great pride in honorable law-abiding conduct by as many Austin High alumni as possible, including myself.
Congressman Doggett, I would appreciate your answering a public-policy-related question from me:
Are you aware of any current involvement by any federal agency or federally-owned institution in any aspect of my own current living conditions during my sleeping hours per se inside my current solo-occupancy bolt-locked efficiency rental-apartment unit at Pebble Creek Apartments in Austin, Texas?
If your answer to the above question is "no", my polite follow-up question to you is:
Do you know of any way in which the federal government can help to protect my own privacy rights and my full freedom from sexual or physical contact of any type by anyone during my sleeping hours as I lie alone on my own bed, asleep and unconscious and probably also snoring, inside my current bolt-locked efficiency apartment unit in north Austin?
I myself strongly support the sanctity of sleep---restful and revitalizing and rejuvenating and healthful sleep--- for any and all constituents of yours, including myself.
I was reminded to respectfully pose the above question to you after I received the following apparent invitation (below) from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services federal agency to myself contact their telephone hotline service in order to myself file a complaint through that federal agency that they would then have the legal authority to apparently investigate.
Congressman Doggett, I am very aware that you have chosen not to reply to any of the previous e-mail letters I sent you this year, including one recent e-mail letter I sent you that was specifically and solely addressed to yourself.
I look forward with hope to your extending to me the kind courtesy of a helpful and informative and polite reply letter on this.

Dear Title V Administrator of the federally-funded "Sexual Violence Prevention" program at the Texas Department of State Health Services state agency in Austin,
I appreciate having read this week for the first time (see above link to your official webpage) about the life-saving federally-funded program you offer for prevention of sexual violence in Texas.
I myself am 62 years old at present, and I am a longtime celibate-by-choice, single-by-choice, permanently-drinking-alcohol-free, permanently-illicit-drug-free, lifelong-tobacco-free, dependably civil and law-abiding and honest Anglo adult gentleman of English, Scottish, and German ancestry. I am gainfully employed in the restaurant industry here in Austin.
Is there any context in which the Sexual Violence Prevention program that your state agency provides Texans can also offer full and year-round protection for myself, John Kevin McMillan of Austin, from any current or future risk of alleged personal-injury-crimes perpetrators and alleged sex crimes perpetrators and alleged home-invasion crimes perpetrators allegedly victimizing me during my sleeping hours as I lie alone, asleep and unconscious and probably also snoring, in the bedroom of my bolt-locked current solo-occupancy rental-apartment unit?
I would also like to find out whether your Title V-funded Sexual Violence Prevention program at your state agency in Austin also provides funding and authorization for DNA-trace rape-evidence exams on a cited victim of alleged continuous and continuing sexual assault crimes allegedly being inflicted on that victim during periods in which he or she is held unconscious throughout each of the alleged sexual assaults?
If so, is your state agency in Austin also willing to request full 190-day or full 180-day retroactive DNA-tracing on cases of individuals (myself, for instance) who appear to have been victimized by alleged continuous daily and year-round sex crimes during their own sleeping hours inside their own rental apartment unit?
I am posing this second question to your state agency because the Austin Police Department has declined to officially authorize any DNA-trace rape-evidence exam on myself that I have requested, on any occasion in more than eight years.
This year, calendar year 2019, both the APD Sex Crimes Unit and the Austin SAFE Alliance non-profit group (which, in the latter case, holds apparent quasi-governmental authority in regard to who gets DNA-trace rape-evidence exams in Austin) have denied each of my requests for a rape-evidence exam. I might add that two emergency room physicians in Austin have each this year chosen not to request a rape-evidence exam on myself that I had politely requested during that visit to their respective hospitals' emergency rooms.
I am always hopeful that Austin Police Chief Brian Manley will ask his APD Sex Crimes Unit to please authorize for me in 2019 my first-ever DNA-trace rape-evidence exam in more than eight years, with an emphasis on full retroactive DNA-traces processing for the most recent 190-day or 180-day period on that proposed new rape kit from myself.
Thank you in advance for your very helpful reply letter to me on this.
Sincerely and Best Wishes,
from longtime criminal-law complainant and self-identified sexual-assault-crimes victim John Kevin McMillan.

Subject: 9-23-19 question for Rep. Doggett from a current constituent
Dear Congressman Doggett,
Best Wishes to a very distinguished and influential alumnus of Stephen F. Austin High School---yourself.
As a former Salutatorian of Stephen F. Austin High and as a gainfully-employed, always-sober and permanently drinking-alcohol-free, anti-marijuana-minded and anti-illicit-drug-minded, longtime-celibate-by-choice, single-by-choice, lifelong-tattoo-less, dependably civil and law-abiding, lawfully non-Christian adult Anglo male current constituent of yours who myself resides alone in north Austin, I would like to respectfully pose a public-policy-minded question for you at this time:
Congressman Doggett, do you support safe housing conditions, including safe sleeping conditions, for myself on a 24-hour-a-day and year-round basis for me inside my current bolt-locked apartment unit in Austin, Texas---an efficiency apartment, I wish to politely emphasize, where NO ONE but me is ever authorized to be anywhere inside my bolt-locked rental unit at any time between the hours of midnight and 9 a.m., in particular.
My second question for you is simply this:
Congressman Doggett, you have received dozens of total e-mails from me over a multi-decade period, and you are very familiar with my own "living" conditions in your cited hometown of Austin.
Have you ever on any occasion ever at any time directly contacted the Austin Police Department Sex Unit here in Austin, Texas, to express your own personal concern and indignation about alleged continuous sex crimes and alleged continuous personal-injury crimes allegedly victimizing me during my sleep as I lie alone, asleep and unconscious and probably also snoring, on my own bed inside my bolt-locked apartment unit in Austin, Texas?
Thank you in advance, Congressman Doggett, for what I am hopeful will be a very helpful and honest reply letter from you in response to each of these two total public-policy-minded questions from myself.
Sincerely and Best Wishes,
John Kevin McMillan, AHS Class of 1975.

with a courtesy carbon copy to a very influential and helpful Texan realtor, Rep.

Holland that each expressed my polite and civilly-worded concern about alleged breaches of security inside several consecutive bolt-locked and fully-secured apartment units or rental-housing units of mine in Austin that allegedly occurred on a daily and year-round basis over a multi-year period.
