U.S. District Decide Colleen Kollar-Kotelly’s order stated that Treasury Division staff will block Musk and different DOGE staff’ entry “to any fee report or fee system of data maintained by or inside the Bureau of the Fiscal Service.”

The order does, nevertheless, permit “read only” entry of the fee programs to 2 “special government employees” who’ve ties to Musk: Tom Krause, the chief govt of Cloud Software program Group Inc., and Marko Elez, a 25-year-old engineer who has labored for Musk-owned firms SpaceX and X. Krause and Elez had been assigned to the Treasury Division by DOGE, and reportedly “passed government background checks and obtained the necessary security clearances,” The New York Occasions reported on Feb. 1.

The restrict on entry will stay in place till the choose hears arguments from the group of unions who sued as to why she ought to grant a extra everlasting injunction on permitting DOGE entry.

Democrats and privateness specialists have been up in arms that DOGE staff have been granted entry to the Treasury’s fee system, which disburses trillions yearly for Social Safety funds, tax refunds, and authorities grants, amongst different issues.

Democratic lawmakers launched laws Wednesday to formally block DOGE staff’ entry to the Treasury fee system.

“Everyone should agree that making the government more efficient and more effective is a good thing. But DOGE’s scorched earth policies are dangerous and unlawful,” Senate Minority Chief Chuck Schumer stated in a speech on the Senate ground asserting a joint invoice with Home Minority Chief Hakeem Jeffries to dam DOGE’s “special government employees” from accessing the fee system. 

He added, “Our legislation would correct it. We’re going to do anything and everything we can legislatively to try and get this done, and maybe at some point we’ll get some help from the other side of the aisle if they see how bad DOGE’s actions are.”

The laws is an effective step that’s unlikely to go, as Republicans management each chambers of Congress and Donald Trump is president. GOP lawmakers have defended Musk’s entry, and Trump is unlikely to do something to cease his buddy Elon from his mission of destroying the federal authorities from inside.

The lawsuit—filed by the Alliance for Retired People, the American Federation of Authorities Staff, and the Service Staff Worldwide Union—is the extra seemingly avenue to dam Musk’s entry.

Public Citizen, the nonprofit shopper advocacy group which filed the lawsuit on behalf of the unions, celebrated the choose’s ruling.
