JUST IN: Chairwoman of Incoming DOGE Subcommittee Marjorie Taylor Greene Fires Off Letter to 24 Executive Agencies Over Attempts to “Trump-Proof” and Stop America First Agenda
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), who will chair the incoming Delivering on Government Efficiency (DOGE) House Oversight Subcommittee, sent a letter to 24 government agencies seeking to derail plans to “Trump-proof” the government.
Chairman Comer has given the green light on the DOGE subcommittee, chaired by Greene, in the next congress with plans to “identify and investigate the waste, corruption, and absolutely useless parts of our federal government,” says Greene.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) co-leaders, Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, were on Capitol Hill this week pitching their plan to cut $2 trillion in wasteful government spending to lawmakers.
Greene spoke to reporters Thursday about her DOGE subcommittee's plans to expose "every single unelected bureaucrat, every single agency that is wasting the American people's money, and the big government departments that need to be exposed for how they're not serving the American people."
She also highlighted Musk and Ramaswamy's "naughty and nice list for members of Congress based on their spending habits with their voting card," which will be used to publicly score lawmakers' voting records ahead of the 2026 elections. Additionally, "they're talking about communicating with the American people, perhaps maybe even a weekly podcast or a report," Green explained.
WATCH:
The committee's first act on exposing corruption is putting 24 of Biden's federal agencies on notice with a letter informing them of an investigation into "whether agency leaders are abusing federal labor laws by granting authority over agency operations and policy to unions, chiefly to bind the hands of a future President."
The letter cites recent reports that the Biden Regime and Unions have colluded to undermine the incoming administration's agenda.
As The Gateway Pundit recently reported, one of these attempts includes a last-minute deal, locking in telework protections for 42,000 Social Security Administration (SSA) employees until 2029. “Across the country, people have gone back to work, yet you’ve got thousands — tens of thousands of federal workers being paid over $100,000 a year each, and they’re not showing up for work,” House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) said Thursday following the Capitol Hill DOGE meetings.
"A report from Ernst’s office this week found that only 6% of federal employees “report in-person on a full-time basis” while roughly one in three are fully remote, according to The New York Post. Musk, for his part, highlighted that the exclusion of maintenance and security staff brought the figure to roughly 1%," Just The News reports.
Politico reported in June that government employees were "taking matters into their own hands by trying to ensure their non-political work isn’t targeted by a future Republican administration," consistent with a Memo Biden signed early in his term, which reportedly "directed agency heads to ensure federal employees could work without fear of political influence."
The letter states, "In a landslide, the American people have charged President-elect Trump with administering the Executive Branch beginning on January 20, 2025. To prevent further inhibition of the incoming President’s ability to fulfill his mandate, we strongly urge the Biden-Harris Administration to cease negotiating or extending collective bargaining agreements with respect to a workforce it will have no responsibility to manage going forward."
"Requiring an incoming President to bargain with federal employee unions for the right to implement his policies is a ceding of executive power—not to Congress or the Judiciary—but to select federal employees and the unions that represent them."
The committee further demands that agency heads turn over documents and communications relating to negotiations that seek to undermine the Trump Administration.
To assist the Committee in its investigation, please provide the following no later than December 20, 2024:
- A list of all ongoing negotiations between your agency and exclusive representatives recognized under the provisions of chapter 71 of title 5, United States Code to enter into new CBAs or renegotiate, modify, or extend any existing CBA, to include a detailed description of the issues under negotiation and the date negotiations began.
