Washington D.C. - Elon Musk's tenure as a 'special government employee' advising the Department of Government Efficiency is projected to conclude at the end of May, according to White House sources. Officials emphasized that Musk's departure is in line with the original plan, coinciding with the completion of his work on the DOGE project, an initiative aimed at improving government processes.
Musk's role involved leveraging his expertise in technology and innovation to identify areas where government operations could be streamlined and made more efficient. While the specifics of his work on the DOGE project remain confidential, it is understood to involve the application of advanced technologies to solve complex government challenges.

The 'special government employee' designation indicates a temporary appointment, allowing individuals with specific expertise to contribute to government initiatives without becoming permanent federal employees. The focus on government efficiency aligns with ongoing efforts to modernize federal agencies and reduce bureaucratic hurdles.
