Following the 2024 elections, the Republican Party established the House and Senate DOGE caucuses to collaborate with Elon Musk's initiative aimed at improving government efficiency. This comes in light of the staggering national debt exceeding $36 trillion, prompting GOP lawmakers to address concerns about taxpayer dollars and excessive federal spending. The caucuses, although not official congressional committees, are designed to partner with the White House and work on identifying and reducing government waste, forming a critical part of the GOP's conservative agenda under President Trump's leadership.
"Our national debt has surpassed a staggering $36 trillion and should be a wakeup call for all Americans," Bean said in a statement when the caucus was launched in November 2024.
The caucuses are aiming to work with administration and Elon Musk to identify government waste.
