House Majority Leader Steve Scalise has introduced the Rescissions Act of 2025, known as H.R. 4, which aims to formalize the Trump administration’s rescission request and cut over $9 billion in federal spending. The Foundation for Government Accountability (FGA) supports this legislative move, emphasizing its potential to reduce what it describes as wasteful government expenditure.
Tarren Bragdon, President and CEO of FGA, stated, “The American people sent President Trump back to the White House to shake up the status quo in Washington. His DOGE effort became emblematic of the kind of positive disruption Americans voted for.” He highlighted that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) savings revealed significant issues within Washington’s bureaucracy.
Bragdon further remarked on Congress’s role: “We applaud Leader Scalise for introducing H.R. 4 and taking bold action to reduce unnecessary federal spending. Congress should move quickly to pass this bill and show taxpayers their voices and votes are being heard loud and clear.”
The FGA describes itself as a non-profit think tank advocating for public policy solutions that foster opportunities for all Americans. It encourages engagement through subscriptions and partnerships aimed at promoting policy changes conducive to entrepreneurship and personal responsibility.
