Bill > HR2601

This bill aims to defund and prohibit the operations of the United States DOGE Service (Department of Government Efficiency), which was established by specific executive orders. The bill defines several key terms, including "covered entity" (which encompasses the DOGE Service, its temporary organization, DOGE Teams, and related entities), "covered executive order" (specifically referencing Executive Orders 14158, 14210, and 14222 related to government efficiency), and "covered individual" (anyone associated with these entities after January 20, 2025). The legislation would prohibit the use of federal funds to implement or support these DOGE-related executive orders and entities. It specifically restricts federal funding for the United States Digital Service, limiting its operations to exactly how they were functioning on January 19, 2025, and blocking any new projects or initiatives started by DOGE-affiliated entities after January 20, 2025. Additionally, the bill prevents covered individuals from using federal funds, equipment, or devices, and bars them from issuing orders or recommendations under the color of government office. The bill effectively seeks to dismantle and defund the entire DOGE Service infrastructure and prevent its continued operation or influence.
