What was Judge Tanya Chutkan's ruling regarding Elon Musk's data access request?

Judge Tanya Chutkan, who previously oversaw Trump's criminal case related to election subversion allegations, declined to block Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) from accessing data from federal agencies. This ruling came despite challenges from Democratic state attorneys general who attempted to prevent this access. The Obama-appointed judge's decision permits Musk to proceed with exploring government agency data, potentially to identify areas of waste reduction. The ruling follows earlier legal challenges that were dismissed due to insufficient evidence of harm, with proponents arguing that adequate safeguards are in place for handling the sensitive information.
