Anticipation is high as Congress gears up for its first Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) subcommittee meeting, set to take place on Wednesday. The meeting is expected to be a battleground of ideas, with Democratic lawmakers expressing strong opposition to billionaire Elon Musk's leadership of DOGE.
Democrats have criticized Musk's efforts to streamline federal spending and reduce the size of the federal workforce, labeling his actions as illegal. Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, has voiced her concerns, stating that she plans to challenge DOGE's legitimacy and Musk's authority during the hearing.
