El gasto federal estadounidense sube a pesar de los recortes de DOGE de Musk
March 13, 2025 -
Elon Musk, que encabeza el Departamento de Eficiencia Gubernamental
(DOGE) del gobierno de Trump, no logró evitar que el gasto federal de EUA alcanzara un nuevo máximo récord en el mes de febrero
Elon Musk’s cuts have failed to stop U.S. federal spending hitting a new record high for the month of February, with outlay spending rising to $603.4 billion – up 6% on the same period last year.
Musk, who heads up the Trump administration’s so called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), claims to have already made more than $100bn of savings in little over a month – although this figure is disputed.
It’s believed an estimated 220,000 federal jobs have been axed by DOGE so far this year, with more expected as agencies feel compelled to initiate budget reductions.
