John,
We’re suing DOGE—again—this time to force it to turn over records by March 10.
In just four weeks, DOGE has:
- Executed a potentially unlawful plan to dismantle USAID and the CFPB
- Taken credit for the cancellation of billions of dollars in federal contracts
- Secured potentially illegal access to systems containing highly restricted and confidential data
- Enlisted and claimed authority to summon federal law enforcement
DOGE is controlling major government functions with no oversight or meaningful transparency into its operations.
Operating in the shadows like that is illegal—which is why we’re suing DOGE (now called the US DOGE Service), its unknown administrator, Elon Musk, the Office of Management and Budget and others.
They have refused to comply with our records requests and repeated demands that they preserve records under the Federal Records Act, and therefore must be compelled to do so by the court.
Preserving and releasing records and being transparent with the American people is not optional, it’s a legal requirement.
The Trump administration *should* welcome compliance with these accountability laws to shine a light on work it’s touting and to provide the “maximum transparency” that it promised.
The transparency we’re fighting for is all the more important given DOGE’s unprecedented and shockingly broad power over funding that affects the lives of the American people every day.
CREW will not relent in our efforts to make DOGE’s operations and records transparent. Can you support this critical work with an urgent donation today?
