Ignoring Reagan, Embracing Waste

July 17, 2025 Grigory Menshikov

President Trump’s decision to relocate the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) headquarters from the crumbling J. Edward Hoover FBI Building, where the agency had been located since 1974, to the Ronald Reagan International Trade Center, which opened in 1998, was a prime example of the commonsense approach being taken by his administration to save money.  […]

House Oversight Hearing Proves USPS Privatization is Dead

June 27, 2025 Grigory Menshikov

Whisperings of privatizing the United States Postal Service (USPS) began before President Trump took office.  He mentioned it in December 2024 (he had floated the idea in his first term as well) but by February 2025 decided it would not be pursued.  While Elon Musk was apparently disagreed with that decision, discussions of USPS reform […]

House Reconciliation Package Restores Spectrum Auction Authority

May 29, 2025 Deborah Collier

Citizens Against Government Waste (CAGW) has supported spectrum auction authority for the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for many years.  H.R. 1, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (reconciliation) passed by the House of Representatives restores this authority through fiscal year (FY) 2034, more than two years after it expired on March 9, 2023.  The renewal […]

The TPA Debate: Fears & Facts about “Fast-Track”

May 28, 2015 Thomas Schatz

When Chicken Little said “The sky is falling!” and convinced his barnyard brethren of the same, the facts notwithstanding, he practically invented fear-mongering. Trade liberalization opponents are engaged in their own version of spreading false and misleading information by claiming that so-called “fast track” legislation is fraught with end-of-the-world-as-we-know-it perils. Just as the falling acorn […]

John Locke was Right….

October 7, 2014 Leslie Paige

When he said “I have always thought the actions of men the best interpreters of their thoughts.” Partisan ideology, never-ending campaigning, and empty rhetoric is no substitute for leadership, competence, and good management.  The Keystone Cop character of the “we first heard about it when we read about it in the news” Obama administration is […]

In the process, the storied American character that once valued hard work and venerated self-reliance has itself […]
