Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy recently presented a comprehensive strategy aimed at reducing the federal workforce under the guidance of President-elect Donald Trump. Their proposal emphasizes a large-scale reduction of federal employees, which they argue will become feasible through the elimination of numerous regulations.
Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy Unveil Plan To Slash US Workforce
In a recent Wall Street Journal, Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, appointed co-heads of the newly proposed Department of Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E), detailed their plan to streamline the federal workforce. This ambitious plan proposes the conversion of some federal employees to “Schedule F,” stripping them of traditional job protections. The move will ultimately reduce the size of the federal workforce.
The Wall Street Journal op-ed coincides with Supreme Court decisions that the duo argues give the incoming administration the executive power to make sweeping changes.
The plan as outlined ties directly to the Trump administration’s broader goals of cutting federal spending and reducing governmental bureaucracy. The Tesla CEO and Ramaswamy suggest that by slashing federal regulations, many federal jobs would naturally become obsolete.
The duo expressed their commitment to the task ahead stating,
“We will serve as outside volunteers, not federal officials or employees. Unlike government commissions or advisory committees, we won’t just write reports or cut ribbons. We’ll cut costs.”
In addition, they mentioned that a collaboration with Trump’s transition team is in progress. This partnership will recruit a group described as “small-government crusaders.” These individuals will collaborate with the White House Office of Management and Budget.
Regulatory Reduction and Its Impact on Federal Employment
Elon Musk and Ramaswamy assert that reducing the number of federal regulations will directly impact the number of federal employees. They argue that fewer regulations will require fewer employees to enforce them. This in turn will lead to reductions in the federal workforce.
The strategy relies heavily on recent Supreme Court rulings that support the president’s authority to rescind regulations that exceed the powers granted by Congress.
Further elaborating on their D.O.G.E strategy, Elon Musk and Ramaswamy referenced two specific Supreme Court cases: West Virginia v. Environmental Protection Agency (2022) and Loper Bright v. Raimondo (2024). These cases, according to the duo, underscore the limitations on federal regulatory agencies’ powers.
The implementation of Elon Musk and Ramaswamy’s plan will lead to one of the most significant restructurings of the government. A recent report indicates that Ripple CLO Alderoty’s plea to D.O.G.E. might prompt a thorough investigation into the SEC’s financial activities.
