Congress’ Attending Physician Notifies Small Number of Members of Contractor Data Breach

Congress’ Office of the Attending Physician informed affected members this week about a hack that compromised a key contractor. The notifications went to lawmakers and staff whose information may have been exposed through the contractor’s systems. The breach itself affected a key contractor relied on by congressional offices for sensitive operations.

Politico reported the incident. That timing places the disclosures in the days immediately preceding May 14, 2026.

No further specifics on the nature of the hack or the contractor’s identity were disclosed in the notifications.
