Demand Safeguards for Sensitive Government Data from DOGE Staffers

<message> Lawmakers are rightly concerned about the potential risk to national security posed by DOGE staffers gaining unauthorized access to sensitive government databases containing classified and sensitive but unclassified information. The claim that DOGE employees have used unsecured channels to analyze and store data from agencies like the National Reconnaissance Office is deeply troubling. Elon Musk's cost-cutting initiative appears to have circumvented normal security protocols, putting America's defense priorities, intelligence operations, and sensitive but unclassified data at risk of being exposed to adversaries. Allowing unvetted personnel to handle classified material and sensitive information so carelessly is unacceptable. Concrete steps must be taken immediately to revoke DOGE's access to any classified systems or data until proper safeguards are implemented under strict oversight. The national security implications of this breach are too severe to ignore. Protecting America's secrets, sensitive information, and the integrity of its intelligence community should be the top priority. </message>
