WASHINGTON—Two high-ranking House Democrats are seeking records from the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) of its activities, structure, and more.

Democrats have been pushing back on the Elon Musk-led advisory body that has sought to identify and root out waste, fraud, and abuse in the federal government in accordance with President Donald Trump’s executive order. DOGE has also recommended cuts to the federal workforce.
