Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth says the DoD's civilian federal workforce must respond to DOGE's productivity emails
Briefly

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced that civilian employees in the Defense Department must comply with the Department of Government Efficiency's request for weekly performance summaries. Initially, workers were instructed to avoid responding, but a review led to the decision to allow compliance. Hegseth emphasized the importance of following proper procedures due to the sensitive nature of the department's work. Employees will receive guidance on how to submit their performance updates, which are intended to enhance accountability and transparency within the military workforce.
I am now directing each member of the department's civilian workforce, just civilian, to provide those five bullets on what they accomplished in their specific jobs last week, to reply to that email and cc their immediate supervisor.
We needed to be careful on that front. The department handles sensitive topics of national security, so proper procedural review was necessary.
