Timeline

This timeline highlights examples of key actions the U.S. DOGE Service has taken since its inception, including the ways it has accessed sensitive data systems, removed critical employees with little justification or transparency, and undertaken reckless actions in the name of "efficiency." We the Builders believes there are better ways to approach the goals that DOGE is claiming as they undertake these actions, and we've shared these alternatives below. We want to illustrate what the scalpel would actually look like, and why it would work better than the sledge hammer.

Note this is not a comprehensive account of all of DOGE's actions. It is continuously updated and is current as of May 15, 2025.
