Supreme Court agrees to hear case on DOGE records access under FOIA
The U.S. Supreme Court agreed on October 13, 2026 to hear U.S. DOGE Service v. U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, a case over whether the Department of Government Efficiency is subject to Freedom of Information Act requests. The case was brought by Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, which filed a FOIA request in early 2025 seeking DOGE organizational and financial records. Oral arguments are expected in early 2027, with a decision likely by late June or early July 2027.
