Chuck Schumer wants to undo the DOGE cuts.
He said not only is he looking to undo the cuts, but wants to increase the amounts.
Schumer said, “If you look at the budget we’re working on right now, we restore most of the cuts. And even go higher than previous years on many of the programs that DOGE slashed.”
House Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said he would press to restore funding cut by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and even add to the original amounts.
Schumer made the comments when he was asked Thursday if he would work to replenish funding for the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) at a forum held by the Center for American Progress.
“If you look at the budget we’re working on right now, we restore most of the cuts. And even go higher than previous years on many of the programs that DOGE slashed,” Schumer said.
“We have worked really hard and gotten bipartisan support to increase these amounts and undo a lot of the cuts which are essential.”
DOGE’s website estimates $215 billion in savings from DOGE.
This includes $1,335.40 per taxpayer.
DOGE most recently announced the termination of “42 wasteful contracts with a ceiling value of $1.5B and savings of $269M.”
