Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Georgia's 14th district, has been vocal about her legislative priorities on social media. In a series of tweets posted on February 19, 2025, she outlined her efforts to address government spending and waste.

In a tweet posted at 17:14 UTC, Rep. Greene emphasized the need to pass her bill aimed at permanently abolishing USAID, which she described as "the Democrats’ taxpayer-funded slush fund burning over $40 BILLION annually." She stated that as Chairwoman of the DOGE Committee, she is leading what she calls the "War on Waste," asserting it is time to "cut the waste and end this misuse of your hard-earned money." "We must pass my bill to permanently abolish USAID, the Democrats’ taxpayer-funded slush fund burning over $40 BILLION annually."

Later that day at 22:28 UTC, Greene shared recommendations from her committee's initiative against wasteful spending. She noted her intention for the DOGE Committee to be proactive rather than waiting until the end of Congress to release extensive reports. Her goal was for immediate action and change within governmental operations. "READ: WAR ON WASTE RECOMMENDATIONS When I was selected to chair @DOGECommittee, I wanted it to be different."

At 22:36 UTC on the same day, Greene provided a link to a press release containing a PDF copy of their review findings for public access and further reading. "READ the press release with a PDF copy of the review HERE: https://t.co/ZKd2OQMP2I"
