Case Summary

(This summary is temporary while we research the case.)

On May 8, 2026, Plaintiffs - individual recipients of federal benefits or who have otherwise trusted sensitive personal information to the government - filed this lawsuit against the United States Office of Personnel Management, The Treasury, and the Social Security Administration in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Their complaint alleged that federal financial institutions have, since DOGE's establishment, granted DOGE-affiliated individuals full, continuous, and ongoing access to individuals' financial information in the course of their transacting with the federal government. This breach in privacy has allegedly led to individuals' information becoming available on the dark web. Plaintiffs sought class certification, monetary damages, and declaratory and injunctive relief.

This case is ongoing.
