Supreme Court of the United States

Ssa v. Afscme

June 6, 2025

Summary

The Supreme Court granted the Government’s application for a stay, suspending the district court’s preliminary injunction that limited DOGE’s access to SSA records. The Court applied the four‑factor Nken test and concluded the factors were satisfied, allowing SSA to provide DOGE staff access pending resolution of the underlying privacy and APA challenges.
