Summary
This bill requires states that receive certain federal funds to establish and maintain a government efficiency department, agency, or commission.
Specifically, the bill prohibits certain discretionary appropriations from being disbursed to any state that has not established and maintained a government efficiency department, agency, or commission to review the efficacy of the state’s administration of federal funding and to eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse of taxpayer funds.
This requirement does not apply to discretionary appropriations within the security category, which includes appropriations associated with the budgets for the Department of Defense, the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Veterans Affairs, the National Nuclear Security Administration, the intelligence community management account, and international affairs.
