     Executive Office of the President, or any component thereof, 
     including the U.S. DOGE Service Temporary Organization, until 
     the date on which each Federal agency, without regard to the 
     direction or advice of an unelected billionaire, complies 
     with legislation, regulations, and court orders that 
     protect--

     that protect consumers from scams by large corporations from 
     elimination.
       (b) Waiver and Appeal.--Subsection (a) may be waived or
