USDA Offices Disappear from DOGE’s Lease Termination List

President Trump's Department of Government Efficiency, better known as DOGE, has silently updated the lease terminations listed on-line, and USDA offices have been majorly impacted.  In March, the Wall of Receipts listed nearly 750 government office lease terminations, planned as part of the DOGE agenda to “maximize governmental efficiency and productivity.”  Now, the number of listed offices is less than 500, and a large chunk of the offices no longer listed are those of USDA agencies.

One of the USDA offices no longer listed is the Hendersonville FSA office in North Carolina. Two sources familiar with the office confirmed a change in the office’s lease status last week, one saying the lease had been renewed. 

This all comes in the midst of Elon Musk’s reported departure from the Trump administration.

Comparing the current DOGE list, more than 70 USDA agency offices have been quietly removed from the Wall of Receipts.  Over half are FSA and NRCS offices, which often work the most closely with farmers.
