Trump Signs New Executive Order With Goal of Shrinking Federal Government
Town Hall ^ | 03/13/17 | Katie Pavlich

Posted on 03/14/2017 2:40:19 PM PDT by Enlightened1

President Trump signed a new executive order Monday instructing federal government agencies to cut duplicative and unnecessary programs across the board. The order is intended to "improve the efficiency, effectiveness and accountability of the executive branch."

“This order requires a thorough examination of every executive department and agency to see where money is being wasted, how services can be improved and whether programs are truly serving American citizens,” Trump said at the White House. “Based on this input, we will develop a detailed plan to make the federal government work better, reorganizing, consolidating and eliminating where necessary. In other words, making the federal government more efficient and very, very cost productive. So we’re going to do something, I think, very, very special.”

Eight more years of big, beautiful and bold moves like this. No wonder liberals still can’t get out of the denial stage of grief LOL

If government equipped to micromanage all things, save sex of course, to jot and tittle is “liberal” then government that doesn’t micromanage must be fascist ... especially if people also want good morals!

The left is like the Clevers from Lewis’ The Pilgrim’s Regress ... only instead of mocking Mr. Halfways they live in dread of the tattered shreds of the better half of his ways.

Unfortunately that takes Congress. But President Trump has a pen and a phone, let's see what he can do.

Submit specific, pragmatic cuts to above official site.
Whining on FR is great...but not sufficient.

The ideas must be entered where they count.
