Summary

A federal judge temporarily blocked Elon Musk from accessing sensitive Labor Department data, a major win for unions concerned about worker privacy.

The lawsuit, filed by federal employee unions, argued that DOGE’s demands posed a threat to labor rights.

Union leaders praised the decision as a safeguard against government overreach.

DOGE has also faced restrictions on Treasury Department access and has taken control of USAID and the Office of Personnel Management, sparking high-profile resignations.
