Any and all documents and communications, including notes from meetings, audio records, telephone and electronic mail records, text and other digital messages, related to the decision of the Department of Education to modify the out-of-office email messages of furloughed employees to read as follows:  Thank you for contacting me. On September 10, 2025, the House of Representatives passed H.R. 5371, a clean continuing resolution. Unfortunately, Democrat Senators are blocking passage of H.R. 5371 in the Senate which has led to a lapse in appropriations. Due to the lapse of appropriations, I am currently in furlough status. I will respond to emails once government functions resume. .
(4)
Any and all documents or communications between the Office of the President, the Office of the Vice President, the Office of Personnel Management, the Office of Management and Budget, and the Office of Special Counsel on whether any communications issued from official Federal Government sources regarding the Federal Government lapse in appropriations occurring in October 2025 constituted a violation of the sections 7323 or 7324 of title 5, United States Code, or section 1341 of title 31, United States Code.
