A federal judge has ruled that a lawsuit seeking to prevent the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) from accessing records on millions of Americans can move forward.
The lawsuit, filed by the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and two labor unions on behalf of over 100 federal employees, targets DOGE, the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM), and Elon Musk.
The suit aims to block OPM from sharing records with DOGE and its agents and seeks the return of any information already disclosed.
The judge's decision rejects the government's motion to dismiss, allowing the plaintiffs to continue pursuing their case.
