DOGE Employees Ordered to Stop Using Slack While Agency Transitions to a Records System Not Subject to FOIA

DOGE employees have been ordered to stop using Slack while the agency transitions from the Office of Management and Budget to the Executive Office of the President, potentially limiting public access to records under FOIA. The move raises concerns among government experts about transparency and accountability, as records would only become accessible years after a president leaves office under the Presidential Records Act.
