# Elon Musk says US federal workers had another chance to justify their work or lose their jobs, as the original deadline passed with staff at multiple federal agencies told to disregard his request. Musk had originally given federal government employees until the end of yesterday to explain their work achievements in an email. The demand represents the latest challenge against government workers as his Department of Government Efficiency works toward cutting federal staffing and spending. He wrote on X that failure to respond a second time will result in termination.
