Update: 2025-10-16
Description
Common Cause has filed 54 ethics complaints against the Trump administration, citing violations of the Hatch Act, Anti-Deficiency Act, and Anti-Lobbying Act. The filings expose what the group calls a “fragmented, outdated” oversight system unable to confront coordinated abuse. Here to explain the findings and the case for a single, independent watchdog is senior vice president for policy and litigation at Common Cause, Omar Noureldin.
