More than a million national workers complied with Elon Musk‘s request to listing five contributions from the previous year, according to the White House.
” I really participated in it myself. I only had a moment and a half to think about the five points I did last year. I do five points in about 10 days. And they should get moving and working at the same rate as President Trump is,” she continued.
That amounts to roughly a fourth of the national labor, which is about 3 million. Despite conflicting advice, the response rate suggests that workers decided to cooperate in an effort to minimize the threat of losing their work.
A federal personnel at the Department of Commerce said,” I responded to the internet, but I did it in accordance with our agency’s instructions and only spoke to my superintendent within the chain of command.” ” No entirely sure what the point of that practice was”, the man said, speaking on the condition of privacy.
According to a source with knowledge of the situation who was given the right to speak with the Office of Personnel Management, responding to the Musk message was “voluntary” and never failing to respond would not be regarded as a withdrawal.
After Monday, Musk posted to social media that people may be given “another opportunity” to listen to the internet, saying,” Failure to respond a next time will result in termination”. When asked for further explanation, Leavitt said,” The firm faces will determine the best methods for their staff at their specific companies”.
Trump furthermore backed Musk’s policy, saying it was intended to find out if there are any governmental employees.
” It says, if you don’t response, there’s a sentence to pay”, Trump said.
A number of national companies, particularly those involved in regional security, like the sections of , Defense, State, Homeland Security, Justice, and Energy, defied Musk and told their people not to comply with the request. People were informed that reactions to the internet are volunteer and that nonresponse requests are not regarded as defections by organizations like the Social Security Administration and the Department of Health and Human Services.  ,
Officials at the sections of Treasury, Commerce, Transportation, Veterans Affairs, the General Services Administration, NASA, the Drug Enforcement Administration, and the Office of Management and Budget instructed their people to cooperate with Musk’s demand.  ,
Lake dismissed rumors that Musk intends to integrate the letters ‘ responses into an artificial intelligence program to determine whether those positions are required.  ,
Uncertainty AND Republican CABINET IS MUSK FEDERAL Employee.
” I haven’t heard that from DOGE or from Elon himself”, Leavitt said. This is done to make sure that federal employees are no dishonesting American citizens, that they are showing up at the office, and that they are carrying out their duties. That’s what the American people expect, and it’s a very simple task to complete” . ,
She continued,” I did it myself, and I was more than happy to do it because I’m very happy that I’m making money for the American taxpayers.”
