Attorney General D. John Sauer wrote that the government’s efficiency department serves as an advisory body to the administrative department and is not an agency.
On May 21, the Trump administration filed a petition with the U.S. Supreme Court to block discovery in a lawsuit seeking access to information about government efficiency (DOGE).
The emergency application asks the High Court to lift a lower court order that could limit the discovery of whether DOGE could be considered a government agency in a lawsuit filed earlier this year by citizens for liability and ethics against Washington and the Doge.
