Response from Wisconsin DOJ regarding DOGE / Elon Musk
I sent an email to Josh Kaul yesterday and got this email back about an hour later:
February 7, 2025
SENT VIA E MAIL 2025-00921
Re: Your message regarding DOGE/Elon Musk
Thank you for writing to Attorney General Kaul and the Wisconsin Department of Justice regarding the “Department of Government Efficiency” and Elon Musk.
This evening, AG Kaul joined 19 states in filing a lawsuit against the Trump administration to stop the unauthorized disclosure of Americans’ private information and sensitive data. Wisconsin and the coalition are seeking an injunction preventing the Trump administration from continuing its new policy of expanded access to the central payment system operated by the Treasury Department’s Bureau of Fiscal Services, as well as a declaration that the Treasury Department’s policy change is unlawful and unconstitutional.
More information on this lawsuit can be found in our press release here:

Sincerely,
