Fox News: 'Catastrophic results': Union, taxpayer groups take stab at DOGE in latest lawsuit over IRS data access
A lawsuit has been filed against Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) by taxpayer and union groups, claiming it violated laws protecting civil servants and citizens' data while trying to eliminate wasteful government spending. The groups allege DOGE's access to sensitive information systems lacks statutory authority and poses risks to personal and business data.
U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan recently denied a temporary restraining order against DOGE, citing no evidence of irreparable harm. However, she raised concerns about the unchecked authority of an unelected individual like Musk. A coalition of Democratic state attorneys general has also filed a suit to restrict DOGE's access to federal employee data.
