The U.S. Department of Labor cancelled $577 million of “America last” contracts including $10 million for “gender equity in the Mexican workplace,” the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) announced on Wednesday.
“Great work today by @USDOL @SecretaryLCD @Sonderling47 cancelling $577M in ‘America Last’ grants for $237M in savings,” DOGE announced, listing some examples of wasteful grants that were cancelled. One of the grants was worth $10 million for what DOGE described as “gender equity in the Mexican workplace.”

Another $12.2 million was for “worker empowerment in South America,” and $6.25 million was for “improving respect for Worker’s rights in agricultural supply chains” in Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador.
The canceled grants were intended for other countries as well, including $3 million for “safe and inclusive work environments” in Lesotho, $3 million to “enhance social security access and worker protections for internal migrant workers” in Bangladesh, $4.3 million for “assisting foreign migrant workers” in Malaysia, and $5 million for “elevating women’s participation in the workplace” in West Africa, per DOGE.
