What is DOGE, and Why Does It Matter to You?
The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is a newly enacted presidential advisory board focused on restructuring the federal government, slashing expenditures, and reducing regulations. These changes are aimed at reducing costs, which could theoretically come at a cost to millions of Americans who rely on critical government benefits.
We aim to reduce the U.S. federal budget by up to $2 trillion through measures such as reducing waste, abolishing redundant agencies, and downsizing the federal workforce.
The AFGE expressed concerns about DOGE's potential impact on social programs, stating, "Budget cuts of this magnitude... will affect vital programs that tens of millions of Americans currently rely on for their financial security and their health and safety. This includes Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, food assistance for low-income families, veterans’ benefits and health care, and so much more.”
