Congressman Jamie Raskin is calling on people everywhere (yes, millions of us) to formally demand that Elon Musk’s DOGE show us any of our personal data the agency has obtained.
This MSN headline shows why: "Judge finds DOGE works in ‘unusual secrecy’ and must comply with records requests."
Jamie explains: "Elon Musk should have been more careful in what he wished for...Millions of Americans can’t wait to see what DOGE has suddenly been doing with all of our data."
Download this letter you can print, fill in. and mail to DOGE to request your data. It takes about 2 minutes. Jamie even sent in one to see his own data!
Talking about fighting back is one thing. Actually doing it – and engaging millions of Americans to help in the process – that's fighting with backbone.
"It’s a double-edged sword, pretending that you’re the government," Jamie observes. "DOGE has recently dodged lawsuits about its seizure of citizens’ personal data by telling courts that it is a legitimate government agency entitled to extract this information. What Elon Musk apparently did not realize is that this statement triggers DOGE’s obligation to comply with citizen demands to see and—if need be—correct their personal information under the Privacy Act."
"I can’t wait to see what the courts will do if DOGE refuses to comply with the District Court’s injunction. Maybe Elon Musk will have to redirect his computer hacker army to start answering millions of information demands from U.S. citizens whose nation this is.”

Thanks for being in this fight.
