DOGE Cuts Can Become LAW Immediately After OBBB Passes!
Feeling frustrated that the OBBB couldn’t just slash spending on the spot? You’re not alone and here’s the game-changer:
🔹 As soon as the OBBB passes, the DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) rescission can be submitted and turned into legally binding law right away.
Here’s how it works:
The President (via OMB) sends a rescission package (targeting watchdog-favorite targets like PBS, NPR, and foreign aid) to Congress.
That funding is frozen for 45 days under the Impoundment Control Act.
Congress votes—the Senate needs only a simple majority, no filibuster.
President signs it → These cuts become permanent law.
🔸 Case in point: The House already approved $9.4B in DOGE cuts
It heads to the Senate next.
In summary:
🔹 OBBB passes → DOGE rescission triggered → 45-day freeze → Senate vote (simple majority) → President signs → Cuts are law.
No OBBB veto power needed. No excuses. Let’s get it done.
