Tillis presses Vought on documented DOGE savings in Senate hearing
The segment covers a Senate Banking Committee hearing exchange between Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) and OMB Director Russell Vought. Tillis repeatedly asked for a single concrete, documented example of DOGE-driven savings that had been booked into agency run rates and reflected in appropriations. Vought referenced governmentwide reductions in force and the administration's budget proposal claiming $160 billion in savings. Tillis criticized chaotic execution, including erroneous termination notices and loss of experienced staff at agencies like NIH, while calling for one detailed case study for the record.
