Elon Musk's team has only "read-only" access to federal payment systems, easing security concerns.

This clarification aims to address concerns raised by lawmakers about potential security risks and missed payments due to DOGE's involvement. A letter to Congress emphasizes that the limited access granted does not pose significant threats to the payment systems or government programs.
