HR 1535 United States House · 119th Congress

BAD DOGE Act

HR 1535, the BAD DOGE Act, repeals Executive Order 14158, which created the U.S. DOGE Service (USDS) and the U.S. DOGE Service Temporary Organization (USDSTO). The bill targets the controversial structure led by Elon Musk, claiming it operated beyond legal authority by freezing federal payments, accessing personnel data without authorization, and attempting to dismantle agencies like USAID without congressional approval. Key provisions require ending the USDSTO and USDS as established under the repealed executive order, reversing actions deemed violations of federal law and the Constitution. The bill directly affects the USDS/USDSTO structure and its leadership, aiming to restore statutory compliance with government ethics and operational limits.
