# Plain Language Summary: Request for Information About Government Efficiency Department's Access to Social Security Data

This is a request from the House of Representatives asking the President to provide information about what the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has been doing with sensitive personal information from the Social Security Administration. Specifically, Congress wants to know if this department has been accessing and using NUMIDENT data—which is a database containing detailed personal identification information like Social Security numbers, names, addresses, and other identifying details that the Social Security Administration maintains.

The bill is essentially Congress saying: "We need to know what's happening with this sensitive personal data." They want details about whether the Department of Government Efficiency has been given access to this information, how much data they've accessed, what they've done with it, and under what authority they're allowed to use it. This matters because Social Security Administration data is supposed to be protected and only used for specific purposes—it's not typically shared with other government agencies without good reason and proper procedures.

This is a transparency and oversight measure. Congress is concerned enough about potential data access to formally request a full accounting from the President. If you have a Social Security number on file with the government, this bill is about making sure you know whether your personal information is being shared with new government departments and for what purposes. The bill doesn't change any laws or create new rules—it's simply demanding answers about what's already happening behind the scenes with your data.

Of inquiry requesting the President of the United States to furnish certain information to the House of Representatives relating to the Department of Government Efficiency's access to and usage of NUMIDENT and other personally identifiable information in the possession of the Social Security Administration.
