Washington — The Supreme Court has allowed the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to access sensitive data from the Social Security Administration (SSA) while ongoing legal challenges proceed, overturning a lower court’s injunction. Justices Kagan, Sotomayor, and Jackson dissented, expressing concerns over privacy risks associated with granting DOGE access to personal information of millions of Americans. The lawsuit, initiated by labor unions and advocacy groups, claims that this access violates federal privacy laws, highlighting the potential dangers of unregulated data usage.
