This House Resolution of inquiry formally requests the President of the United States to furnish the House of Representatives with a comprehensive set of documents and communications. The requested materials, which include records, correspondence, audit trails, and written agreements, must be provided within 14 days of the resolution's adoption. The primary focus of this inquiry is the Department of Government Efficiency ( DOGE ) and its activities concerning sensitive data held by the Social Security Administration ( SSA ). Specifically, the resolution seeks information regarding efforts by DOGE , Elon Musk, or their associates to communicate with or share NUMIDENT or other personally identifiable information from the SSA with non-governmental organizations involved in analyzing voter rolls or overturning election results. It also probes the sharing of SSA data with the Department of Homeland Security, including a specific encrypted file sent in March 2025, and the use of third-party servers like Cloudflare by DOGE members for data transmission. Furthermore, the inquiry aims to uncover any actions by DOGE or its personnel to access, use, or transmit SSA information in violation of laws, SSA policy, or court orders, including a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction issued in early 2025.
