| 马斯克现在指点着当局服从部（DOGE），担当增加联邦开销。该部分现已经停止了一系列当局拨款战条约，挨治了多个当局机构的事情，许多职工面对停职或者赋闲。 马斯克的地位嚷“出格当局雇员”（special government employee），意义是短时间内乱受聘到当局，为当局供给专科常识的人。 What is a "special government employee"? In 1962, Congress created the role of "special government employee," which allows the executive branch, the legislative branch and independent federal agencies to bring on employees for specific roles on a temporary basis. 国会正在1962年创造了“出格当局雇员”，许可止政、坐法战其余自力联邦机构临时雇用出格职工担当一定职务。 Typically, SGEs are hired as experts or consultants or serve as members of federal advisory co妹妹ittees, of which there are roughly 1,000 across the U.S. government. 凡是，出格当局雇员会担当大师、参谋大概联邦征询委员会成员，好国当局大要有1000个如许的委员会。  SGEs are limited to working for the government for no more than 130 days out of a 365-day period, though they can work multiple years, and they can either be paid or unpaid. NPR has reported that Musk is not being paid for his work with DOGE. 出格当局雇员一年内乱为当局事情的时间没有患上超越130天，不划定事情年限。地位能够是有偿也能够无偿。NPR报导称，马斯克正在DOGE的事情是不报答的。 One reason government officials take on SGEs is that it's less burdensome than hiring regular federal employees, according to Joanna Friedman, a partner with the Federal Practice Group, a Washington, D.C., law firm specializing in federal employment law. Federal Practice Group 是华衰整理的一野特地处置联邦赋闲法的状师事件所，律所合股人乔安娜·弗里德曼暗示，聘任出格雇员的一个启事是，比招聘一般联邦雇员承担要沉。 "If you're hired as a federal employee, you have to go through typically the competitive selection process, which means you have to apply for a job and you must be selected as the best-qualified candidate," Friedman said. "This is just an easier way to bring someone on board without as much red tape." “要成为联邦雇员，典范方法是颠末合作提拔过程，表示着您必需提出恳求，必需成为最及格的候选人，”弗里德曼道。“出格雇员便简朴多了，不消那末多繁文缛节就可以参加当局。”  What powers do SGEs have? According to Kathleen Clark, a professor specializing in government ethics law at Washington University in St. Louis, SGEs are mostly the same as regular government employees and can be given similar powers, including access to sensitive information. Musk and DOGE were granted access to a massive Treasury Department payment system that contains Americans' Social Security numbers and bank account information. 圣路易斯华衰整理年夜教当局伦理法传授凯瑟琳·克推克暗示，根本上SGE取一般当局雇员具有类似的权益，好比能够会见敏感疑息。马斯克战DOGE被授与会见宏大的财务部付出体系的权力，该体系里有好国人的社保号码战银止疑息。  Clark says what's different about Musk's case is that he is exercising power — such as purporting to shut down entire government agencies — that she says is beyond that of anyone in the White House. 克推克暗示，可是马斯克的差别的地方正在于，他今朝利用的权益，已经超越了利剑宫所有人，好比声称要封闭全部当局机构。 "The president does not have that power and neither does Elon Musk under our Constitution, which grants Congress the power to control how money is spent by the executive branch," Clark said. “按照咱们的宪法，总统皆不这类权益，马斯克也不，宪法只付与国会掌握止政部分怎样费钱的权益，”克推克道。 A group of 19 Democratic state attorneys general filed a lawsuit challenging DOGE's authority to shut down agencies and access sensitive information, while another lawsuit alleges a lack of transparency at the office. 19名专制党州查察少提起了诉讼，量信DOGE闭停机媾和会见敏感疑息的权益，而另外一共诉讼则控告DOGE缺少通明度。  SGEs are bound by certain ethics rules Because many SGEs have jobs in the private sector, there are ethics rules in place to prevent them from using their government work for personal gain. 因为很多SGE正在公营部分有事情，为了避免他们使用当局地位牟取公利，订定了相干品德标准。 Depending on their pay grade, SGEs have to file either a publicly available or confidential financial disclosure form, which typically happens when they start working for the government. (The president, vice president, officials requiring Senate confirmation and certain White House appointees are required to file public financial disclosures.) SGEs may also be required to receive ethics training. SGE凡是正在开端为当局事情时，按照自己的薪资品级，提接公然的或者失密的财政表露表。（总统、副总统、需要商讨院确认的民员战某些利剑宫录用的民员，必需提接公然的陈述。）SGE可以借要承受品德训练。 NPR reported that Musk had received an ethics briefing and would file a confidential financial disclosure report. NPR报导称，马斯克已经支到了品德标准简报，并将提接一份失密的财政表露陈述。 On top of that, criminal law prevents SGEs (as well as federal workers) from participating in any government matter that could impact their finances. When a conflict arises, SGEs can either recuse themselves from the matter or divest from the relevant financial interest. 除此以外，刑法治行SGE（和联邦事情职员）到场所有可以作用其财政情况的当局事件。当两者发作抵触时，SGE能够躲避该事件，或者抛却相干财政长处。  Past SGEs have also faced scrutiny Previous administrations have also used SGEs for high-profile roles in government. 往常的当局也曾聘任SGE担当当局主要职务。 During his first administration, Trump hired Dr. Scott Atlas as a science adviser in the su妹妹er of 2020 during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic. Atlas, who was brought on as a special government employee, was not an infectious disease expert and clashed with other public health officials over his views on the coronavirus. He resigned in November of that year. 特朗普曾正在他的第一任期，于2020年炎天COVID-19疫情早期，聘请了斯科特·阿特推斯专士担当科学参谋。固然阿特推斯为聘为出格当局雇员，但是他并非流行症大师，借因为对于新冠病毒的概念宁可他大众卫死民员发作了抵触。共年11月，阿特推斯告退。  More recently, Anita Dunn, a founder of the consulting firm SKDK, was forced to divest a multimillion-dollar investment portfolio when she became a senior adviser to President Biden in 2022. She had previously worked as an SGE for the Biden administration. 远一面的例子，征询公司 SKDK 的开创人安妮塔·邓恩正在2022年担当拜登的初级参谋时，自愿 剥离了数百万美圆的投资拉拢。她此前曾担当拜登当局的SGE。 And during the Obama administration, GOP Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa raised questions about the "special government employee" designation given to then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's aide Huma Abedin, who had also worked for the Clinton Foundation and the consulting firm Teneo. 正在奥巴马当局期间，爱荷华州同战党商讨员查克·格推斯利，对于时任国务卿希推里的帮忙胡玛·阿贝丁的“出格当局雇员”身份提出量信，后者也曾正在克林整理基金会战征询公司 Teneo事情过。 |
