The Social Security Administration holds the most sensitive personal records Americans have: names, Social Security numbers, birth dates, addresses, and family details. Court filings have shown that members of the DOGE team moved this kind of data onto servers outside the agency's security rules. A whistleblower who raised the alarm was pushed out. The public still has no clear answer about where the data went or who can see it. Your identity is the key to your retirement, your bank account, and your credit. Once it leaks, you cannot take it back. Government employees and political appointees should never be free to copy it wherever they like, with no consequences. Congress can set hard rules, independent audits, and real penalties for anyone who mishandles it. Protect whistleblowers who report violations. Pass a law that bars copying Social Security data to unsecured systems and penalizes anyone who does.
