In the near future, I will introduce a resolution urging the Pennsylvania Congressional Delegation to commend and support the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
D.O.G.E. has made remarkable strides in enhancing government efficiency, curbing the waste of taxpayers’ dollars, and eliminating unnecessary overspending.
 
Through focused efforts, D.O.G.E. has addressed critical inefficiencies, cutting through bureaucratic red tape, and updating outdated processes.
Their recent accomplishments include saving an estimated $105 billion for taxpayers. This impressive figure results from initiatives such as fraud detection and elimination, the cancelation of unnecessary contracts and leases, renegotiation to achieve better terms, asset sales, grant cancelations, workforce reductions, programmatic changes, and regulatory savings aimed at streamlining government operations.
 
While many seniors, disabled veterans, and hardworking Pennsylvanians struggle to make ends meet, billions continue to flow to foreign countries for unwarranted projects that serve no public purpose. The illuminating work of D.O.G.E. has exposed these money-laundering schemes and corruption, ensuring transparency and accountability in our government.
 
Elon Musk's innovative approach to efficiency—leveraging automation, data-driven decision-making, and re-imagining legacy systems—has not only revolutionized private industry but has also delivered substantial savings for taxpayers. As the founder and CEO of Tesla, SpaceX, Neuralink, and The Boring Company, he has been a leader in disruptive innovations across various sectors, from electric vehicles to space exploration.
It is essential now to recognize and harness his insights for the public sector. By embracing technological advancements and incorporating them into public services, we can reduce costs, create new job opportunities, and foster a government that is responsive, sustainable, and forward-thinking.
I strongly urge all members of the Pennsylvania Congressional Delegation to support D.O.G.E. as it is in the best interest of the public, helping to preserve taxpayers' hard-earned dollars. As we enter a new era of government efficiency and technological advancement, it is imperative that we fully stand behind D.O.G.E. and ensure they have the necessary resources and access to continue enhancing government efficiency and accountability.
