What this bill would do

This bill, known as the "Accountability in Government Efficiency Act," directs the Comptroller General of the United States to create a report regarding the Department of Government Efficiency. The report must analyze actions taken by this department, such as reducing civil service employees or terminating and pausing Federal programs. It specifically requires an analysis of how these actions affect the long-term financial, public health, and safety interests of the country. Additionally, the report must check if these actions comply with certain privacy and procedural laws. The Comptroller General is required to submit this report to Congress by December 31, 2025.
