Moskowitz Joins New Bipartisan DOGE Caucus

Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.) has become the first Democrat to join the Congressional Delivering Outstanding Government Efficiency (DOGE) Caucus, a bipartisan group advocating for government restructuring and efficiency. The caucus supports the new Department of Government Efficiency, led by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy under President-elect Donald Trump, aiming to tackle waste and inefficiency in the federal budget. Moskowitz emphasizes that streamlining government processes should not be a partisan issue and calls for the Secret Service and FEMA to be independent from the Department of Homeland Security, which he believes has grown too large. His decision follows broader bipartisan discussions on reducing government waste, with support from other lawmakers like Sen. Bernie Sanders. The DOGE Caucus has attracted significant Republican support, including from Reps. Aaron Bean and Pete Sessions, and Sen. Joni Ernst. Moskowitz's involvement highlights a commitment to bipartisan collaboration in addressing government inefficiencies.
