Elon Musk Demands Federal Employees Report Weekly Tasks or Face Resignation

Under President Trump's directive, Musk introduces new accountability measures targeting federal workers to reduce government spending.

Elon Musk, head of the Department of Government Efficiency, announced a policy requiring federal employees to justify their weekly tasks via email or risk being considered as having resigned.
Employees must submit a report detailing five tasks completed in the past week by Monday at 11:59 PM EST, copying their supervisors in the response.
The Office of Personnel Management has yet to comment, while federal employee union AFGE has vowed to challenge any dismissals it deems illegal.
President Trump urged Musk to adopt a more aggressive approach in cutting public spending, praising his efforts but calling for increased action.
The move follows prior measures under the Trump administration, including incentivized resignations and mass layoffs, which have already affected tens of thousands of federal workers.
