‘Just getting started’: Trump speech on DOGE, budget and border
President Donald Trump used his remarks before a joint session of Congress to spell out his vision for the next four years.
One building in Nebraska is listed among the hundreds of “underutilized” federal properties that could be sold by President Donald Trump’s administration.
In a statement released Tuesday, the U.S. General Services Administration announced that it would consider selling more than 440 federal properties, which it calls “non-core assets,” saying many are “functionally obsolete and unsuitable for use by our federal workforce.”
A list of the properties posted Tuesday on the agency’s website had been removed by Wednesday and replaced only with a new headline that reads “coming soon.”
When asked why the list was removed, Stephanie Joseph, a spokesperson for the General Services Administration, said in a statement to USA TODAY that the agency is reviewing the properties
Joseph said the agency will consider “compelling offers in accordance with applicable laws and regulations and do what’s best for the needs of the federal government and taxpayer.”
“Since publishing the initial list on March 4, 2025, we have received an overwhelming amount of interest,” she said. “We anticipate the list will be republished in the near future after we evaluate this initial input and determine how we can make it easier for stakeholders to understand the nuances of the assets listed.”
Here’s what we know about the property in Nebraska included on the list.
What property in Nebraska is on the list?
One building in Nebraska was listed among the properties that could potentially be sold: The Edward Zorinsky Federal Building in Omaha. The building’s primary tenants are the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the IRS and the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Will the property be sold?
The inclusion of any property on the list does not necessarily mean it will be sold. The General Services Administration said in its statement that all of the listed properties will be considered for “divestment from government ownership in an orderly fashion,” with factors including “current use, occupancy, cost of agency relocation and local market conditions.”
The agency also said that it would be open to other options, including “sale-leasebacks, ground lease and other forms of public/private partnerships.
