US EditionTrump administration asks Supreme Court to let DOGE access Social Security systems
- The Trump administration filed an emergency appeal on Friday asking the Supreme Court to allow the Department of Government Efficiency to access Social Security systems.
- The appeal follows a Maryland judge's ruling that restricted DOGE's access to protect Social Security data under federal privacy laws.
- Social Security holds sensitive data including personal, school, bank, salary, and disability medical records, and a labor union lawsuit originally blocked DOGE access.
- An appeals court majority denied lifting the block, though conservative judges stated no evidence showed DOGE engaged in “targeted snooping” or exposed personal information.
- The administration asserts DOGE needs access to identify government waste in Social Security, highlighting Musk’s focus on reducing program inefficiencies described as a "Ponzi scheme.
