McALLEN, Texas (ValleyCentral) — The federal Department of Government Efficiency has abruptly terminated the U.S. Attorney’s Office lease in Corpus Christi, leaving federal prosecutors who handle drug and immigration cases in South Texas scrambling to find new office space.

When, exactly, DOGE — as the department is commonly known — canceled the lease remains unclear. Prosecutors heard about the decision Wednesday.

“It was sudden. Without notice,” said U.S. Rep. Henry Cuellar, D-Laredo. “And they basically don’t know if they got 30 days or two months or what. They don’t know.”
