The South Carolina State House is considering creating a Department of Government Efficiency, inspired by the controversial Elon Musk-run DOGE in Washington, D.C. The proposed commission would identify fraud, waste, and abuse in government operations, composed of industry leaders appointed by top officials rather than sitting lawmakers. While some Democrats criticize the move as a political stunt, Governor Henry McMaster supports the idea of fresh perspectives from government outsiders. The commission would report its findings to the legislature for consideration, aiming to streamline regulations and save the state’s industries millions of dollars. The resolutions for the creation of DOGE in South Carolina have bipartisan support from powerful lawmakers, with plans to have the commission issue its first report by October of the current year. The proposal is still in the early stages but holds potential for improving government efficiency in the state. Subscribe to WIS for more updates and download their apps for additional content.
