[link removed] [[link removed]] John,

“[T]here is nothing unconstitutional about Congress requiring the Executive Branch to inform the public of how it is apportioning the public’s money. Defendants are therefore required to stop violating the law!”No, that’s not a quote from CREW—that’s a quote from the judge in our case demanding transparency from the Office of Management and Budget.

The judge just granted us a huge win for American taxpayers and, as you can tell, he had some strong words for the Trump administration.

Back in April, we sued OMB for illegally taking down the website that shows how it directs agencies to spend taxpayer money.

This morning, the court affirmed that we were right: Americans have a right to know how taxpayer money is being spent.

Contrary to the Trump administration’s absurd arguments, it is NOT unconstitutional for Congress to require the executive branch to be transparent.

Requiring spending decisions like this to be public will be a critical check on the executive branch’s abuse and misuse of federal funds, especially in a time when it is pulling funding at whim and running roughshod over the separation of powers.

This is a big victory—but it’s likely the first win in a long fight. We expect the Trump administration to continue trying to operate in secret because they know that arbitrarily pulling funding from government programs is not popular.
