I do not know the answer to your question. You should speak with an attorney experienced in suing the USA. Often, governments are exempt from such suits under something known as sovereign immunity The United States as a sovereign is immune from suit unless it unequivocally consents to being sued. There are exceptions, especially the Federal Tort Claims Act. In the United States, the federal government has sovereign immunity and may not be sued unless it has waived its immunity or consented to suit. The United States has waived sovereign immunity to a limited extent, mainly through the Federal Tort Claims Act, which waives the immunity if a tortious act of a federal employee causes damage, and the Tucker Act, which waives the immunity over claims arising out of contracts to which the federal government is a party. The United States Supreme Court in Price v. United States observed: "It is an axiom of our jurisprudence. The government is not liable to suit unless it consents thereto, and its liability in suit cannot be extended beyond the plain language of the statute authorizing it."
