Prioritize Space Tech: Maintain space technology as a central focus in national policy, ensuring sustained support and investment.

These initiatives are designed to be completed by July 4, 2026, aligning with the 250th anniversary of the United States.

3. Musk’s Influence: Bridging Innovation and Policy

Elon Musk’s leadership in DOGE underscores his influence in shaping both technological innovation and government policy. His involvement is expected to:

Promote Efficiency: Implement strategies to cut wasteful expenditures and streamline federal operations.
