Elon Musk is set to attend President Donald Trump’s joint address to Congress on Tuesday night, according to a White House official, in another public display of the multi-billionaire tech entrepreneur’s enormous influence in the Trump administration.

Trump is expected to use part of his remarks tout cuts to the federal government by Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency, which has mounted an aggressive onslaught of the federal bureaucracy during Trump’s five weeks in office.

Musk, a White House senior adviser, attended Trump’s first Cabinet meeting of his second term last week and joined Trump in the Oval Office last month for the signing of an executive order that further empowered DOGE.

It was not immediately clear where Musk will sit during the joint address. Cabinet secretaries ‒ which Musk is not ‒ are historically seated in the first few rows of the House chamber while presidential guests typically watch from the balcony.
