DOGE's effort to slash government is now coming for buildings and people who run them

The federal government is preparing to shed up to a quarter of its 360 million square feet of real estate, an NPR analysis finds. The agency in charge of federal real estate is also slashing staff.
The article from WLRN discusses Project 2025, a conservative initiative aimed at significantly reducing the size and scope of the federal government. This project, led by the Heritage Foundation, proposes drastic cuts to federal agencies, including the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), which could see its budget slashed by 50% or more. The plan includes selling off federal buildings and properties, potentially leading to the privatization of public housing and other government services. Critics argue that these measures would disproportionately affect lower-income communities, potentially leading to increased homelessness and reduced access to affordable housing. Additionally, the project seeks to eliminate or drastically reduce programs like the Community Development Block Grant, which funds local community development efforts. The overarching goal appears to be a return to a smaller government footprint, with significant implications for federal employees, who might face job losses, and the communities dependent on these services.
