DOGE says Texas nonprofit with former Biden transition member reaped millions operating empty facility
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has ended a contract with Family Endeavors, a nonprofit, which was receiving millions monthly to manage an overflow facility in Texas that remained unused.
• The contract was terminated because Family Endeavors, which had a former U. S. Customs and Immigration Enforcement employee involved, failed to utilize the overflow facility in Pecos, Texas.
• HHS continued to pay Family Endeavors $18 million each month for this empty facility since March 2024.
• Family Endeavors' financial status grew from $8. 3 million in 2020 to $520. 4 million in 2023 due to this contract.
• HHS’s termination of the arrangement aims to save taxpayers more than $215 million annually as national facility occupancy for licensed care facilities is below 20%.
• The leader of DOGE, Elon Musk, is pursuing aggressive measures to cut government waste, aiming for a target of $100 trillion in spending cuts.
The termination of the HHS contract with Family Endeavors highlights concerns over government spending on unused facilities and reflects efforts to improve accountability and save taxpayer money.
