Briefly

DOGE has seen a notable reduction in its claims for savings related to federal lease terminations, with over 100 buildings removed from its list. This cut represents a decrease of approximately $150 million in stated savings.

The current emphasis is on optimizing federal building usage amid evolving government policies and budget considerations.
