DOGE now has access to NOAA's IT systems, reviewing DEI programs
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the federal agency responsible for forecasting the weather, researching and analyzing climate and weather data and monitoring and tracking extreme weather events like hurricanes, is being scrutinized by the Department of Government Efficiency, according to several sources familiar with the matter.
According to Sen. Chris Van Hollen, the ranking member of a subcommittee with jurisdiction over NOAA, members of Congress and at least one member of DOGE entered the Department of Commerce, the department that houses NOAA, and requested and was granted access to the NOAA IT systems.
DOGE was first denied access to the NOAA IT servers but now has access, according to two sources familiar with the situation.

DOGE is looking for anything tied to DEI and that they removed anything DEI-related from bulletin boards, including posters and signs, the sources said. They also checked bathroom signs to ensure they complied with Trump's executive orders.
