Kudos Jeff Landry
“ LA DOGE will achieve $999.5 million in annual cost savings of both federal and state tax dollars across 17 state departments, according to a report by Republican Gov. Jeff Landry’s office reviewed by Fox News Digital. The report posits that these savings will be achieved "without any reductions in service."
Of the nearly $1 billion in savings, the report said that $367 million was from Louisiana’s state general fund, $601 million from federal tax dollars and $65 million from other funding sources.
From the state fund, LA DOGE was able to cut $407.6 million in spending by improving the governmental workforce and service inefficiencies amongst state staff. An additional $206.4 million was cut through renegotiated and canceled contracts.
Louisiana was able to cut $285.5 million through Medicaid cuts that included improved eligibility determination processes to remove ineligible recipients and the implementation of an optimized process of monthly checks of residency of Medicaid members by utilizing data from the Office of Motor Vehicles. An additional $14.9 million was cut in similar eligibility determination improvements for SNAP beneficiaries.
An official in the governor’s office emphasized to Fox News Digital that the state has been able to do all these cuts while simultaneously improving the state’s services to citizens. ”

Many people in Louisiana won’t even see this news because they don’t pay attention or watch the MSM or they vote based on race.

Landry dismantled the ethics board because he didn’t want to have to use his own money to pay for his gym membership. Excuse me if I take this report with a grain of salt.

Me also and I was raised in the NE. All about what do I get? Not what I can give. Dem hero Kennedy once asked “ask not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country”. Now they all socialists needing to be taken care of and don’t want to contribute anything.
