Attempts by the so-called Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, to seek access to the Social Security Administration’s database have sparked concern that it could compromise people’s private financial and medical information and could lead to a disruption in benefits.

The top Social Security official stepped down after refusing to provide Elon Musk's DOGE access to sensitive government records.

Musk has been falsely alleging massive fraud at the agency as he and DOGE reportedly try to gain access to Social Security data.
