SSA Reveals DOGE Signaled Voter-Data Pact with Election-Denial Group

TL;DR Summary
Federal court filings reveal that DOGE staff engaged with a political advocacy group on a 'Voter Data Agreement' to analyze voter rolls, with at least one DOGE employee signing the pact; the arrangement bypassed internal safeguards and used unapproved third‑party servers, raising privacy and legal concerns. The filing does not name the group, but True the Vote had publicly pressed DOGE to review voter rolls earlier. SSA says it has not proven that its data were shared, but the episode triggers a Hatch Act review amid ongoing litigation over DOGE’s access to SSA systems.
