    reasoning
    Both entities represent the 'Freedom of Information Act' with the same legal citation '5 U.S.C. 552(b)'. Their descriptions are highly similar, and both define the same specific restriction codes (b(1) and b(6)), indicating they refer to the identical federal law. The types 'federal_law' and 'federal_statute' are synonymous in this context.
