Referred to the House Committee on Ways and Means.
H.Res. 314 is a congressional inquiry demanding that the President and Secretary of Health and Human Services provide documents within 14 days regarding potential privacy breaches involving the so-called "Department of Government Efficiency" (DOGE). The resolution seeks information about whether DOGE accessed legally-protected identity and financial data from two federal databases: the National Directory of New Hires and the Federal Parent Locator Service, which contains information on millions of Americans and is used to process child support payments. Lawmakers want to know what data DOGE obtained, how it was secured, whether proper legal authorization existed, and if any HHS employees were terminated or resigned in connection with these requests. The resolution, submitted by House Democrats, appears to investigate concerns that sensitive taxpayer and family information may have been improperly accessed without adequate safeguards or legal justification.
