アメリカの次期大統領ドナルド・トランプ氏は11月12日、新たに設立を計画している「政府効率化省」トップに、イーロン・マスク氏とヴィヴェック・ラマスワミ氏を指名すると発表した。トランプ氏は声明で、「2人の素晴らしいアメリカ人が、我々の政権で政府の官僚主義を解体し、過剰な規制を削減し、無駄な支出を削減して、連邦機関を再構築する道を切り開いてくれるでしょう。これは『アメリカを救う』運動にとって必要不可欠です」と述べた。また、新たな省は「現代の『マンハッタン計画』になる可能性がある」ともコメントしている。トランプ氏によると、新組織「政府効率化省（Department of Government Efficiency）」は略して「DOGE」よ呼ばれる。この名称は、マスク氏が柴犬かぼすちゃんで知られる犬のインターネットミーム「ドージ」にちなんで考案したものだ。トランプ氏は、マスク氏とラマスワミ氏の業務は2026年7月4日までに完了する予定で、「より効率的で官僚主義の少ない小さな政府が、アメリカ独立宣言の250周年にぴったりの贈り物になる」と述べている。関連記事translated
