Summary

Labor unions filed an emergency court motion to block Elon Musk’s DOGE from accessing sensitive Social Security data.

The lawsuit, led by Democracy Forward, argues DOGE’s data request lacks transparency and poses security risks. The Social Security Administration has not commented.

DOGE has previously accessed Treasury and IRS data. A judge recently declined to block DOGE’s Treasury access but acknowledged privacy concerns.

Unions fear DOGE’s broad access could impact benefits and personal privacy.
