U.S. federal agencies have terminated or descoped 95 wasteful contracts with a ceiling value of $2 billion over the previous four weeks, saving $757 million in taxpayer funds, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) said in a March 14 post on X.

Terminated contracts include a $75,400 State Department media contract for “media monitoring services,” a $45.6 million Office of Personnel Management services contract for “talent acquisition support,” and a $98.5 million research contract from the Department of Education to “follow and study high school students throughout their high school careers.”
