Elon Musk and President Trump have announced a major initiative aimed at reducing the size of the federal government. Through the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), they are implementing cuts that include personnel reductions, cancellations of contracts, and halting aid to various organizations. Notable consequences are already apparent in Florida, where significant layoffs at agencies such as the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the National Park Service have led to job losses in important ecological sectors, affecting local economies and environmental management.
President Trump and Elon Musk have forged ahead with an aggressive plan to downsize the federal government, with Musk using his Department of Government Efficiency to reduce personnel.
In Florida, we are beginning to see some of the effects of the cuts, from the mass layoffs at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, which included a high profile meteorologist from Miami.
