“As my scheduled time as a Special Government Employee comes to an end, I would like to thank President @realDonaldTrump for the opportunity to reduce wasteful spending,” Musk wrote in a post on X on Wednesday. “The @DOGE mission will only strengthen over time as it becomes a way of life throughout the government.”
A White House official confirmed that Musk’s offboarding was beginning.
Musk was designated a “special government employee.” Federal law stipulates that those with this title cannot serve for more than 130 days in a 365-day period.
Tesla’s share price has been on the rise since his announcement in April that he’d be stepping back from his White House work. The company had been targeted by boycotts and protests over its CEO’s work with the White House DOGE office.
