Minutes after Donald Trump was sworn in, three organizations filed federal lawsuits against Department of Government Efficiency (“DOGE”), led by Elon Musk, alleging it violated a 1972 statute:

⚫ 1st lawsuit: Claims DOGE operates as a secretive “shadow operation” lacking transparency and oversight.

⚫ 2nd lawsuit: Alleges DOGE’s formation violates advisory committee rules, excluding diverse perspectives.

⚫ 3rd lawsuit: Accuses DOGE of failing to represent everyday Americans and violating the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA).
