I think I know the answer, but are these tournaments FIDE rated again? Also, are the games available anywhere?

Hi Alex,
These tournaments were rated last year and will be for this year, 2017.
Some of the games are available at Monroi website. I believe all the players had to turn a complete scoresheet so there is at least a carbon-copy/paper versions of them somewhere.
Last year, a group of chess journalists - Pete Karagianis, Al Lawrence, and Frank Niro - were converting US Open scoresheets (and maybe including D/B/N) into PGN files. They were making daily chess bulletins for both in print or digital copy at fair, reasonable subscription prices. All proceeds went to the U.S. Chess trust, if I remember correctly.
Hope this answers your questions~!
