Congressman Brian Jack was appointed to the Delivering on Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E.) Subcommittee of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee.
The Delivering on Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E.) Subcommittee was created to work with President Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency to identify and reduce government waste and streamline operations across the federal government.
Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (Georgia-14) chairs the D.O.G.E. Subcommittee.
“I am honored to be appointed to the D.O.G.E. Subcommittee,” said Congressman Jack. “During my campaign across our district, I promised to hold the federal government accountable. I served in President Trump’s White House for the entirety of his first term and saw first-hand how entrenched and resistant the federal bureaucracy was to his America First agenda. I look forward to working with my friends in President Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency to finally eliminate wasteful spending and optimize the way our federal government functions.”
The D.O.G.E. Subcommittee’s first hearing – “The War on Waste: Stamping Out the Scourge of Improper Payments and Fraud” – will be held tomorrow, Wednesday, February 12, 2025, to address the staggering $2.7 trillion taxpayer dollars lost to fraudulent and improper payments since 2003.
Go after the waste, not the people. Make your mama proud!
Each taxpayer’s share of the $37,000,000,000,000 national debt is now north of $300,000 and climbing. It’s far past time to get serious about what kind and how much of a federal government we need.
Yet we see angry Democrats shouting against commonsense reductions in the waste, abuse and fraud that permeates the federal government. Clinton and Obama both tried cutting the cost and size of the federal bureaucracy, but now Dems are acting as if it’s a catastrophic new idea, as if we can keep recklessly spending citizens’ money with no consequences.
Godspeed to DOGE and Brian Jack. May they have the wisdom and persistence to see this to a successful end.
I am all for cutting wasteful spending at all levels of government. I am also all for working within the structure of the U.S. Constitution to do this. It is good to see the Congress involved in the process instead of merely the Executive.
Good luck to Mr. Jack and his Congressional committee. If he must work with Rep. Greene, he’ll need all the luck he can get!
