Judge Orders OMB to Restore Public Funding Tracker Website

HeadlineJul 22, 2025

A federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to restore a website showing how the Office of Management and Budget directs agencies to spend congressionally appropriated funds. Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics, which sued the OMB and its director, Russell Vought, for taking down the website, celebrated the ruling, writing, “Contrary to the Trump administration’s absurd arguments, it is NOT unconstitutional for Congress to require the executive branch to be transparent.”
