DOGE proposal would have incorrectly marked 2.7 million people as dead

A proposal would have marked 2.7 million living people as dead, according to allegations from a whistleblower. The plan was reportedly part of a broader immigration enforcement push.

The whistleblower's account raises questions about the accuracy and consequences of the proposed database changes. Incorrectly marking millions of people as deceased could have affected their access to government services, employment verification, and legal status.
