The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is initiating the integration of officials from Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), according to an internal email sent to SEC staff on Friday, March 28, 2025.
The email, reviewed by Reuters, informs SEC employees that the DOGE task force has approached the SEC and that its members will be treated as SEC staff concerning access to networks, systems, and data. To facilitate this, the SEC is establishing a liaison team aimed at partnering with DOGE representatives. The email outlines the intent to collaborate with DOGE while adhering to standard procedures related to ethics requirements, IT security, system training, and verifying the necessity of access before granting entry to restricted systems and data.
