Governor Wes Moore

Yeah, well, I think if you look at the intent that they've laid out about increasing government efficiency, about making sure that we're reducing waste, fraud, and abuse, that we're making sure that we're being good stewards of taxpayer dollars, I think the reason that you're starting to see the disconnect between what DOGE is doing is because people are seeing what states have already started doing.

If you look at the state of Maryland, long before DOGE was a thing, one of my first hires was a chief performance officer. whose job was to go in and work with our cabinet secretaries to be able to eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse within our state government. So we focus on things like how can we do fleet management and IT consolidation? And how do we have real estate?

And knowing that the real estate, some of the real estate we have that the state owns, that we should not have that on our books. Or doing massive procurement reform or regulatory reform. This is work that was already happening in the state of Maryland. The difference is, is that we did it with values.

and we led with humanity, and we made sure that, yes, we were cutting tens of millions of dollars, which we have done already in the state of Maryland, but we weren't doing it in a way that was also compromising our values.

That's the difference of what Doge is, is that not only has there been a deep compromising of values, in many ways, many of the things that Doge is doing are illegal or unconstitutional. and not being done in coordination with the cabinet secretaries.

And so I actually understand why cabinet secretaries are pretty mad when they're being so minimized and not being allowed to do anything or any of their jobs, because now it seems like Doge is the ones in charge of every single one of these agencies. There's a way to do efficiency right.

And if you want to look at how to do efficiency right, look at Maryland, look at these other states, look at these governors who are already doing this work, except we're doing it with a baseline of humanity and value.
