WASHINGTON (AP) — Eight government watchdogs sued the Trump administration on Wednesday over their mass firing that removed oversight of his new administration.
The lawsuit filed in federal court in Washington asks a judge to declare the firings unlawful and restore them to their positions.
The independent inspectors general at government agencies say in the lawsuit that they play a critical, nonpartisan role overseeing trillions of dollars in federal spending and the conduct of millions of federal employees.
Congress was not given the legally required 30-day notices about the removals, something that even a top Republican decried at the time.
President Donald Trump has said he would put new “good people” in the roles.
