ACLU files FOIA for Department Of Government Efficiency access to personal records
ACLU is seeking records from 40+ government on the Department of Government Efficiency's unauthorized use of sensitive or personally identifiable data as part of an effort to purge the government of ideologically unaligned staff may constitute a violation of federal law.
As the civil liberty org reminds Congress: The Privacy Act and the Federal Information Security Modernization Act strictly prohibit, for instance, unauthorized access and use of government personnel data.
