A federal judge recently ruled that a lawsuit opposing the Department of Government Efficiency's (DOGE) efforts to access records on millions of Americans may proceed. This case, brought by privacy advocates, including the Electronic Frontier Foundation and labor unions, was originally filed in February by over 100 current and former federal employees. Despite the government's motion to dismiss the case, the judge's denial allows plaintiffs to continue, seeking to stop the disclosure of sensitive information held by the Office of Personnel Management and to reclaim information already provided to DOGE.
The federal judge's ruling on Thursday permits the lawsuit against the Department of Government Efficiency concerning the collection of data on millions of Americans to move forward.
The lawsuit, filed by privacy advocates and labor unions, aims to prevent the disclosure of federal employee records and demands the return of shared information.
