WASHINGTON<\/strong>\u202f\u2013 The nonpartisan, nonprofit Partnership for Public Service<\/a> today released the following statement from President and CEO Max Stier<\/strong> in response to reporting<\/a> and X comments from Office of Personnel Management Director Scott Kupor<\/a> that the Department of Government Efficiency has been disbanded as a centralized entity under the United States Digital Service:  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDOGE\u2019s disbandment eight months early could not have come soon enough. There are many lessons that the Trump administration should have learned from this deeply destructive and wasteful initiative, but the most important is that destroying the nonpartisan federal workforce is the exact opposite approach that our country needs to effectively improve the functioning of our government.\u201d  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTo that end, it is encouraging that the administration appears to be ending its arbitrary and haphazard hiring freeze and reduction targets. It is vital, however, that merit rather than loyalty be the touchstone for the civil service.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the past 24 years, the nonpartisan, nonprofit Partnership for Public Service has been dedicated to building a better government and a stronger democracy. We work across administrations to help transform the way government works by providing agencies with the data insights they need to succeed, developing effective leaders, inspiring the next generation to public service, facilitating smooth presidential transitions and recognizing exceptional federal employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
