A coalition of voter advocacy and privacy rights organizations, along with individual plaintiffs, filed a class action lawsuit challenging the Trump-Vance administration’s creation of centralized “Interagency Databases” that consolidate sensitive personal information from multiple federal and state sources. They allege the program, developed in collaboration with the so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), violates the Privacy Act of 1974 and the U.S. Constitution by unlawfully collecting, merging, and using citizens’ data to initiate investigations and purge voter rolls. Plaintiffs seek declaratory and injunctive relief to block the operation of these databases and to compel the deletion of unlawfully collected information.
