Elon Musk's DOGE Sued for FACA Violations Minutes After Trump's Inauguration
Jan 20, 2025, 12:50 PM
A lawsuit alleging that Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) violates federal transparency laws under the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) is set to be filed within minutes of Donald Trump's inauguration as president. The lawsuit, to be filed by the public interest law firm National Security Counselors, claims that DOGE meets the criteria for a federal advisory committee, which requires balanced representation, open meetings, and recorded minutes. The Department of Government Efficiency, a nongovernmental entity led by Musk and involving Vivek Ramaswamy, aims to streamline government operations. The Washington Post reports that this legal action marks the beginning of a legal battle over the incoming administration's agenda.
