Florida Rep. Jared Moskowitz has become the first Democrat to join the caucus supporting President-elect Donald Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency, indicating potential bipartisan support for efforts to streamline the federal government.
Moskowitz aims to focus on making the Secret Service and FEMA independent federal agencies that report directly to the White House. His decision to support DOGE is not an isolated one, as Sen. Bernie Sanders, an Independent from Vermont who caucuses with the Democrats, has also expressed his backing for efforts to revamp spending at the Pentagon.
