Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency is ending the work of a U.S. aid agency launched by Republican former President George W. Bush to reduce poverty and promote economic growth around the world, according to a recording of a staff meeting and an email to staff seen by Reuters.
The move to shut down the Millennium Challenge Corporation comes as part of an unprecedented push by President Donald Trump and his billionaire adviser Musk to shrink the federal government, saying U.S. taxpayer money is misspent.
MCC staff were told in a meeting on Wednesday that all of the agency's programs will be closed and staff numbers would be minimized, according to a recording of the meeting.
