Washington, D.C.-based Pillsbury litigation partner Jack McKay represents thousands of federal employees as plaintiffs in two cases that challenge the STOCK Act’s requirement of the online disclosure of the personal financial information of federal employees. He welcomed a federal court judge’s rejection of a key aspect of the government’s motion to have the case dismissed.
McKay stated that if Congress does not act in time, plaintiffs will seek an injunction against the online posting requirement. In case the employees do return to court, the National Academy of Public Administration (NAPA) report, which recommended that Congress should “indefinitely suspend” the requirement, “will give us some ammunition,” he said. “That’s the new piece of evidence we will cite.”
