Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy Outline Plan to Reshape U.S. Federal Government
The Department of Government Efficiency proposes deep budget cuts, workforce reductions, and regulatory rollbacks under Trump’s second administration.
- Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, appointed by President-elect Donald Trump, aim to cut $2 trillion in federal spending through the newly created Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
- The plan includes eliminating at least $500 billion in expenditures by targeting federal programs like Planned Parenthood, public broadcasting, and international aid organizations.
- Proposals include reducing the federal workforce by transitioning employees to the private sector and ending remote work policies to encourage voluntary resignations.
- Musk and Ramaswamy intend to leverage recent Supreme Court decisions to bypass Congress and nullify federal regulations deemed overreaching.
- Critics warn of the potential impact on public services and progressive initiatives, while proponents argue the cuts are necessary to address the $1.8 trillion budget deficit.
