President Trump has rebranded the U.S. Digital Service (USDS) to the United States DOGE Service, aiming to overhaul federal agencies by reducing bureaucracy and inefficiencies. This initiative, influenced by billionaire Elon Musk, includes interviewing existing USDS employees on their work and commitment to the agency. Fear among staff about loyalty assessments has surfaced, especially in light of recent political climate criticisms. Unlike traditional civil service roles, USDS employees have limited protections, raising concerns over job security amidst these changes, particularly as the organization did not undergo similar re-evaluations in past administrations.
