Uncovering Government Waste with Marjorie Taylor Greene

Investigating the Immigration Crisis

Laken Riley's tragic murder serves as a stark reminder of the issues tied to the immigration crisis. A 22-year-old nursing student, brutally killed while jogging on the University of Georgia campus, and the subsequent conviction of Venezuelan illegal immigrant Jose Ibarra raise important questions. Greene wants to bring sanctuary state governors and city mayors before the committee to explain why they deserve federal dollars when they harbor illegal criminal aliens. This is a crucial aspect that demands attention and reform.

The “humanitarian flight” that brought Ibarra to Atlanta in September 2023 is a case in point. It highlights the need for stricter policies and better oversight to ensure the safety of American citizens. Greene's focus on this area shows her commitment to addressing the root causes of crime and protecting the nation.

Cutting Government Programs and Contracts

Greene believes that cutting programs, contracts, employees, and grant programs that fail the American people and do not serve their interests is the way forward. Government-funded media programs like NPR, which she claims spread Democrat propaganda, will be under scrutiny. By examining these programs, she aims to ensure that taxpayer dollars are being used effectively and not for political agendas.

Active government contracts and programs will also be evaluated to determine if they still make sense or if their purpose has expired. This includes looking at government buildings that are sitting empty while employees work from home. With over $15 billion spent annually on these buildings, it's essential to assess their utilization and make necessary adjustments.

Remote Work and Government Service

The COVID-19 pandemic led to a significant shift in work patterns, with many government employees working remotely. While this provided some flexibility, Greene questions whether it has been an efficient use of resources. She emphasizes the need to review these arrangements and ensure that government services are not being compromised.

By examining remote work policies and the use of government buildings, Greene hopes to find ways to streamline operations and improve the overall efficiency of the government. This approach is crucial in a time of fiscal responsibility and limited resources.
