Technology and space exploration mogul Elon Musk and entrepreneur-turned-2024 Republican presidential primary candidate Vivek Ramaswamy have unveiled their vision for the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which they will spearhead under President-elect Donald J.

To address the problem, they say they will work with legal experts in each agency to identify regulatory guidance and rulemaking that is outside the bounds of West Virginia v. Environmental Protection Agency and Loper Bright v. Raimondo—two recent Supreme Court decisions that have significantly curbed the regulatory reach of federal agencies. These rules and regulations will be compiled into lists to be presented to President Trump, “who can, by executive action, immediately pause the enforcement of those regulations and initiate the process for review and rescission.”

Musk and Ramaswamy note that while the President cannot—arguably—target individual positions for elimination, federal law allows for “‘reductions in force’ that don’t target specific employees.”
