Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, the co-leaders of what President-elect Donald J. Trump has known as the Division of Authorities Effectivity, stated on Wednesday that they supported requiring federal workers to work from the workplace 5 days every week as a part of a broad overhaul of the civil service.
The change, they wrote in an opinion column in The Wall Avenue Journal, may end in a “wave of voluntary terminations that we welcome.”
“If federal employees don’t want to show up, American taxpayers shouldn’t pay them for the Covid-era privilege of staying home,” they wrote.
Of their column, Mr. Musk and Mr. Ramaswamy described a number of the early goals of the division, which Mr. Trump had stated would function outdoors of the federal government and supply enter to federal officers. Mr. Musk has promised to remove $2 trillion from the annual United States finances, and has stated that the federal government wants solely 99 businesses, no more than 400.
A part of the group’s job — reducing down the variety of federal rules — could be offering “sound industrial logic for mass head-count reductions across the federal bureaucracy,” Mr. Musk and Mr. Ramaswamy wrote.
The 2 males have been advising Mr. Trump’s transition group to rent what they stated had been “small-government crusaders” to work with the White Home’s Workplace of Administration and Funds.
