The Trump administration has agreed to temporarily restrict the Department of the Treasury's Financial Management Service access.

BlockBeats News, February 6th, the US Department of Justice prosecutor has agreed to temporarily restrict access by the "Government Efficiency Department" (DOGE) staff led by Musk to information in the Treasury Department's payment system.

Previously, a group of union members and retirees sued the US Treasury Department, alleging that providing DOGE access to the federal government's vast payment system and the personal data information stored therein violated federal privacy laws.

The Trump administration filed a motion on Wednesday night seeking to sign a proposed order outlining the agreed-upon terms. The proposed order states that "the defendant will not be provided access to any payment records or payment systems maintained by the US Treasury Service or its internals." The order allows for exceptions, specifically allowing two special government employees within the Treasury Department (Tom Klaus and Marko Elez) to access these records "on an as-needed basis" in the performance of their duties, but such access is limited to "read-only."
