A coalition of state attorneys general, led by Attorney General Andrea Campbell, has sued Elon Musk and the Trump administration for allegedly unconstitutionally creating the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) without Congressional oversight. The lawsuit argues that this action grants Musk excessive power, enabling disruption at various governmental levels and violating the Constitution's Appointments Clause. The attorneys general seek to nullify Musk's authority, restore proper oversight, and ensure that federal power remains within constitutional limits, particularly concerning critical services like healthcare and education funding.
The President cannot create a new department to restructure the federal government and certainly cannot give unchecked power to a billionaire friend without Congressional action.
Our lawsuit seeks to put an end to the ongoing corruption and abuse of power at DOGE that threatens funding for crucial needs such as healthcare, education, and more.
Musk's actions violate the Appointments Clause of the United States Constitution, which requires the Senate to confirm all executive appointments.
The lawsuit claims that Musk has unraveled federal agencies, accessed sensitive data, and caused widespread disruption at state, local, and federal levels.
