ACLU sues the Social Security Administration and the Department of Veterans Affairs for violating the Freedom of Information Act.

The ACLU says DOGE 's access to highly sensitive information about Americans ’ health and finances raises “acute concerns” due to the “extraordinary harm” that can result from any unauthorized use of those files.

The SSA rejected the ACLU ’s claim but later ignored its attempts to file an appeal, the ACLU says.
