DOGE in the Treasury

MANHATTAN — A federal court in New York modified its preliminary injunction against DOGE, which seeks access to the U.S. Treasury’s payout system. The government asked for the entire injunction to be lifted because all members of the Treasury DOGE team would be trained on how to handle personally identifiable information and confidential financial info; the court allows five DOGE employees, who have been properly trained, to access the information at issue and asks DOGE not to have the court “function as Treasury’s de facto human resources officer each time a new team member is onboarded.”
