Mike Lee Suggests Senate Could Add 'Aggressive' DOGE Cuts to Big Beautiful Bill

Last week, President Trump's 'Big Beautiful bill' passed the House, causing the Democrats to meltdown. Some Republicans, like Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson, aren't happy that the bill doesn't do enough to address (read: drastically cut) spending.

It appears Senator Mike Lee agrees.

Yes, please.

I like Mike a lot.

But I’d rather see action from him.

I hope he is able to get it done.

Should extremely easy to put in the bill.

In theory, every single GOP Member wants the DOGE cuts because they have been screaming about it for months.

Get it done @BasedMikeLee

Get it done.

I want to see someone try.

And if the reason against it is “it won’t pass” - MAKE both Republicans and Democrats go on the record opposing it.

THIS.

Play political hardball. Get both sides on record as voting against spending cuts and DOGE.

Make. Them. Own. It.

Honestly, what is the reason NOT to eliminate waste, fraud and abuse in government spending?

Unless that waste fraud and abuse benefits them.

Well that would be great but it's never going to happen.
