Hundreds of U.S. federal offices may soon close

Hundreds of U.S. federal offices may close this summer as Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) targets "unnecessary" spending. The agency plans to terminate numerous real estate leases, with many cancellations expected by June 30. Internal documents reveal that the General Services Administration (GSA) has notified landlords about nearly 800 lease terminations. Agencies like the IRS and Social Security Administration are among those facing significant cancellations. DOGE estimates the lease terminations could save about $500 million, but this does not include the costs associated with moving and closing offices.
