I am writing to you as a concerned constituent to bring to your attention a deeply troubling matter involving the unauthorized access and sharing of sensitive information by a career employee at the Social Security Administration (SSA). It has come to light that Leland Dudek, who was recently promoted to acting commissioner by the Trump administration, provided unauthorized access to data belonging to the SSA to staffers associated with Elon Musk. This breach of trust and blatant disregard for privacy and security protocols not only undermines the integrity of the SSA but also raises significant concerns about the current administration's accountability and transparency. The promotion of Mr. Dudek, despite this serious infraction, suggests a troubling pattern where those who act unlawfully are rewarded with positions of power, rather than being held accountable for their actions. I urge you to call for an immediate investigation into this incident to ensure that justice is served and to prevent future occurrences of similar misconduct. It is imperative that all individuals, regardless of their position, are held accountable for their actions when they violate the law. Transparency and accountability are fundamental to maintaining public trust in our government institutions. I trust that you will take this matter seriously and advocate for the necessary actions to be taken. Thank you for your attention to this critical issue.
