Federal cost-cutting initiatives pushed by President Donald Trump have turned their focus to the Federal Emergency Management Agency, where spending on consultants like Deloitte now faces scrutiny.
Workers at the agency have been asked to provide by Tuesday evening plain-language explanations of contracts and designate which are “non-essential” and should be terminated or reduced, according to documents seen by Bloomberg News.
