Executive Order 14158

Establishing and Implementing the President's "Department of Government Efficiency"

This Executive Order renames the U.S. Digital Service as the U.S. DOGE Service (USDS), places it in the Executive Office of the President, and creates a temporary organization to advance an 18-month efficiency agenda. It mandates that every federal agency establish a four-person "DOGE Team" within 30 days and grants USDS broad access to agency records and IT systems, displacing prior orders that might block such access.
