Elon Musk again demands federal workers justify jobs amid confusion | White House Press Briefing
2 min read
lon Musk has issued a second demand for federal workers to submit progress reports detailing their accomplishments from the previous week, despite initial confusion over the directive. Musk tweeted, "Subject to the discretion of the President, they will be given another chance. Failure to respond a second time will result in termination."
It’s the second attempt at trying to get federal employees to justify their jobs by asking for five bullet points on what they accomplished the previous week. The initial request via email led to several agencies telling their employees to ignore the email, while other agencies told their employees to reply. Workers were given a Monday night deadline or faced termination, according to Musk. The Office of Personnel Management clarified the ultimatum Monday night and left it to individual agencies to decide whether their employees should comply, leading to mixed messages.
