Congressional Hearing on Government Efficiency and Federal Property Management with Ms. Crockett

Published | Video Starts at 01:10

So it's unfortunate that Republicans have taken a seemingly bipartisan issue and included it as part of their scam to subsidize tax giveaway for billionaires. They haven't proposed anything that will improve the efficiency of the government. Instead, They have put the country on a path to a recession and implemented the largest tax increase on Americans in decades through Trump's tariffs. This hearing is their latest attempt to try to convince the American people that dismantling public facing agencies will somehow improve government efficiency. Let me tell you, it won't. (01:10–01:19)
