Elon Musk's DOGE Sued for 1972 Law Violation Minutes After Trump's Inauguration
Jan 20, 2025, 03:00 PM
Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is set to face a lawsuit for allegedly violating federal transparency laws, with the suit being filed at 12:02 p.m. in federal court minutes after President Donald Trump's inauguration. The lawsuit, filed by the National Security Counselors and the American Federation of Government Employees, alleges that DOGE qualifies as a federal advisory committee under the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) of 1972 and thus must comply with regulations requiring balanced representation, open meetings, and recorded minutes. Vivek Ramaswamy is also involved in the nongovernmental entity. DOGE, led by Musk, aims to cut trillions in federal waste and outdated regulations. The legal challenge indicates a swift response to the newly established department and could have significant implications for the incoming administration's agenda.
