President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Feb. 26 that gives new cost-cutting directives to all federal agencies while they coordinate with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
The order directs departments to immediately review all contracts and grants for “waste, fraud, and abuse” and to justify and publicly release government payments and travel expenses where possible. The General Services Administration will also create a plan for offloading any unnecessary government-owned or leased real estate property.
