       The decision cleared the way for teams put in place this year by #Musk to reclaim “high-level IT access” to govt databases, Judge Julius Richardson wrote, over the objections of a number of #labor #unions who had sued, arguing the move violated federal #privacy laws.…Richardson said the…case mirrored those in a lawsuit involving #data that #SCOTUS weighed as an #emergency application….In that case, SCOTUS…allowed #DOGE to continue sifting through the records “in order…to do their work.”#law
