Arizonans demand transparency and FOIA requests of DOGE. Congressional oversight and public accountability are essential principles underscored by the proposed CLEAR Act in Michigan. According to a press release from Scholten's office, the Consistent Legal Expectations and Access to Records (CLEAR) Act, clarifies that temporary organizations like DOGE are subject to the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). This legislation aims to bring Elon Musk's organization DOGE under the purview of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). If enacted, the CLEAR Act would enable the public to request information about the operations, spending, and decision-making processes of this entity. Arizona representatives must urgently propose similar legislation to Michigan's CLEAR Act, as unchecked and unaccountable power poses a grave threat to our democracy and civil liberties.
