Nineteen attorneys general, including New York’s Letitia James, accused the president of failing to faithfully execute the nation’s laws when he let Mr. Musk comb through federal computer systems.

Rob Bonta and a dozen other attorneys general say President Donald Trump lacks the constitutional authority to expand unauthorized access for political appointees.

A federal judge has blocked Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency from accessing Treasury Department records that contain sensitive personal data such as Social Security and bank account numbers for millions of Americans.

The attorneys general said in a statement that they would take action “in defense of our Constitution (and) our right to privacy."

The agreement came in response to a lawsuit accusing Treasury of committing an “unlawful action” by giving private info to Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency.

The Trump administration has agreed to restrict Musk and his department's access to the Treasury Department Payment Systems.

Vermont and New York are among a dozen states that have joined a lawsuit to stop Elon Musk’s access to sensitive U.S. Treasury Department payment computer systems.
