Elon Musk heads to US Congress to discuss government trimming

Hindustan Times  

Elon Musk, appointed by Donald Trump to head a government efficiency commission, will meet with congressional lawmakers in Washington on Thursday to discuss his plans for radical budget cuts. U.S. President-elect Donald Trump and Elon Musk watch the launch of the sixth test flight of the SpaceX Starship rocket in Brownsville, Texas, U.S., November 19, 2024. "On Nov. 5, voters decisively elected Donald Trump with a mandate for sweeping change, and they deserve to get it," the two billionaires wrote in an opinion piece in the Wall Street Journal last month. "A drastic reduction in federal regulations provides sound industrial logic for mass head-count reductions across the federal bureaucracy," Musk wrote, adding that laid off federal workers will be allowed a "graceful exit."
