He stated that the student group’s lawsuit was based on speculation.
Judge Randolph Moss of the District of Columbia U.S. District Court rejected a student group’s attempt to block Elon Musk and the U.S. DOGE Service from accessing the internal systems of the Department of Education.
The University of California Student Association filed a request for a temporary restraining order against DOGE, which is focusing audit efforts on the Education Department. The student association claimed that the department’s decision to allow DOGE to access its internal systems violates the Privacy Act of 1974 and the Internal Revenue Code, which is intended to protect the personal information of all U.S. students and loan borrowers.
Judge Moss rejected the filing, saying that the group submitted no evidence for their argument “beyond sheer speculation” that DOGE misused the data collected from the Education Department.
As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…
- For DOGE personnel as they perform audits of the various government departments and agencies.
- For federal judges to be discerning as they hear challenges to the actions and policies of President Trump’s administration.
