Congressman Sessions and Congressman Bean Launch the DOGE Caucus
November 20, 2024
WASHINGTON–Congressman Pete Sessions (TX-17) and Congressman Aaron Bean (FL-04) will serve as co-chairs of the new Delivering Outstanding Government Efficiency (DOGE) Caucus. This caucus is committed to working alongside President Donald Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to eliminate the rampant waste, fraud, and abuse in the federal government.
Congressman Sessions said, “As Chairman of the Subcommittee on Government Operations and the Federal Workforce, it has been my priority to identify and stop ongoing waste, fraud, and abuse in our government. According to a report from the GAO, there has been over $2.7 trillion in fraud and improper payments since 2003. This is an absolutely unacceptable misuse of taxpayer dollars. Hardworking Americans deserve a government that works efficiently and effectively. I am looking forward to working with Congressman Bean and serving as Co-Chair of the DOGE Caucus to continue my commitment in rooting out inefficiency in our government.”
“Our national debt has surpassed a staggering $36 trillion and should be a wakeup call for all Americans. We must take action to avoid diving headfirst off the cliff of fiscal ruin,” said Congressman Bean. “I’m thrilled with President-elect Trump’s appointment of Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to lead DOGE, but taking on Crazy Town will be no easy task- they will need partners. Our DOGE Caucus will work closely with the Department of Government Efficiency to help rein in reckless spending and stop the abuse of taxpayer dollars.”
