Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene has announced that she will be chairing a new Oversight subcommittee in the upcoming 119th Congress. The subcommittee, named Subcommittee on Delivering on Government Efficiency (DOGE), will collaborate with the recently formed Department of Government Efficiency led by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy.
The decision to establish this new subcommittee was confirmed by a source familiar with the matter, revealing that Greene will be at the helm. House Oversight Chair James Comer is spearheading the initiative to create the DOGE subcommittee, which aligns with the broader objective of President-elect Donald Trump and his allies to implement substantial cuts within the federal government.
During a recent meeting between House Oversight Chair James Comer, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and Vivek Ramaswamy, discussions were held to outline the responsibilities and focus areas of the new subcommittee. Greene, known for her unwavering support for President Trump, expressed enthusiasm for the role, emphasizing the subcommittee's commitment to identifying inefficiencies and holding non-performing bureaucrats accountable.
Greene stated, 'I'm excited to chair this new subcommittee designed to work hand in hand with President Trump, Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy, and the entire DOGE team. Our subcommittee's work will expose individuals who need to be terminated, including bureaucrats who fail to fulfill their duties, oversee failed audits such as those in the Pentagon, and exhibit a lack of transparency regarding the allocation of billions of dollars.'
As the chair of the subcommittee, Greene intends to conduct thorough investigations into wasteful practices across various federal government departments and plans to convene hearings to address these issues effectively.
