Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) on Monday questioned Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick over the access tech billionaire Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has to his competitors and business partners.

In a letter to Lutnick, Warren said DOGE has gained access to key government databases across several federal agencies.

She argued that such activities at the Commerce Department, which relies on being able to protect sensitive business confidential information, undermine public trust.

Warren warned this access could potentially provide Musk’s businesses with unfair advantages.
