Because the files are created by the government, which is created by the people, for the people, to serve the people. Technically, those files belong to every citizen of the US, and should be publicly available.

I like what they're doing. Helping push back from the pendulum swinging can't hurt anything. I know they want the pendulum to swing in the other direction, but that's simply not going to happen. Nonetheless, kudos to them.
