Hundreds of US federal offices could close soon due to Musk's DOGE measures against wasteful spending
Elon Musk is pushing for austerity measures under the DOGE program, which could lead to the closure of hundreds of federal offices in the US.
The US government is facing a possible massive closure of federal offices as a result of austerity measures implemented under the DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) program, promoted by Elon Musk.
The billionaire, who has been a vocal critic of excessive spending in public administration, has insisted on the need to optimize resources and eliminate what he considers unnecessary bureaucratic structures. As a result, hundreds of federal offices could close in the coming months, affecting thousands of employees and the citizens who depend on their services.
While some sectors welcome the idea of reducing costs and making the government more efficient, others warn of the negative impacts this could have on customer service and state operations.
The White House has not yet issued an official statement on the scope of these measures, but sources close to the administration assure that Musk's proposal has generated a heated internal debate. Details about which agencies could be affected and what alternatives would be available to ensure the continuity of essential services are expected to be released in the coming weeks.
