DOGE cuts spur more Republican pushback
"As the Trump administration plows ahead with its bid to radically reshape the federal government, increasing numbers of Republicans are pushing back on the offensive's wide scope and impacts on federal workers.
Why it matters: The Elon Musk-led Department of Governmental Efficiency's crusade against the federal bureaucracy has sparked a flurry of legal challenges as it purports to cut costs and end waste in the federal government.
State of play: The growing pushback to DOGE comes as many Republican lawmakers are faced with the impacts the agency's cuts will have on their constituents and states.
Some GOP lawmakers have even been forced to contend with anti-DOGE protests and town halls in their districts.
The big picture: Rep. Rich McCormick (R-Ga.), who faced a testy audience at a town hall last week, told NBC News he planned to use a meeting with President Trump Tuesday to "bend" the president's ear on the DOGE cuts."
