The U.S. IRS has reached a contractual understanding with Gavin Kliger, an aide to Elon Musk, which restricts his access to sensitive taxpayer data. Signed by Treasury and OPM officials, this agreement aims to streamline IRS operations while safeguarding individual taxpayer privacy.

The Trump White House and Treasury Department officials have reached an agreement to limit DOGE's access to IRS data, citing privacy concerns.

Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency is seeking access to the Internal Revenue Service’s highly sensitive taxpayer data system, a source familiar with the move tells CNN.

An IRS draft memo may grant a DOGE adviser broad access to taxpayer data, raising privacy concerns and sparking legal challenges.

Under pressure from the White House, the IRS is considering a memorandum of understanding that would give officials from DOGE broad access to tax-agency systems, property and datasets.

The DOGE efforts at the IRS come as the Trump administration is moving to drastically reduce the size of the tax collection agency.
