Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) sent tech billionaire Elon Musk 30 ideas for how the newly formed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) could cut government spending.

Warren's Thursday letter to Musk, President Trump’s close ally and the commission’s chair, recommended that he consider numerous progressive policy proposals, including allowing Medicare to negotiate lower drug prices, renegotiating Department of Defense (DOD) contracts and curbing tax loopholes for large corporations and the highest earners.

“With regard to policy, I am disturbed by the dangerous proposals you have discussed and released to date: proposals from you and your allies to cut Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, veterans’ benefits, and other programs that tens of millions of Americans count on and rely on are unrealistic and cruel,“ Warren wrote in a 21-page letter.
