American Public Health Association v. Office of Management and Budget
Case Overview
Public Citizen, State Democracy Defenders Fund, and the American Federation of Government Employees sued President Trump and the OMB to ensure the Department of Government Efficiency complies with the Federal Advisory Committee Act. This case was consolidated with similar suits from the American Public Health Association and National Security Counselors.
The Application
Plaintiffs argue that DOGE, established to advise the President and OMB on government efficiency matters, functions as an advisory committee subject to FACA's procedural and transparency requirements. Defendants contend that DOGE either does not meet FACA's definition of an advisory committee or qualifies for a statutory exemption from the Act.
The Conclusion
The case remains active in the D.C. District Court before Judge Jia M. Cobb and will determine whether DOGE must operate under FACA's transparency and procedural constraints or can function without such requirements.
