Congressional Republicans are racing to harness the momentum left behind by Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), and the leaders of a new House GOP initiative are hoping they have the solution.
"You tell people the word ‘rescission,' in my district, I'm sure that polls pretty low, but they know waste, they know fraud, and they know abuse," Rep. Riley Moore, R-W.Va., told Fox News Digital.
"This is why this process needs to be not only explained to our own members, but also to the population out here that might not know what the heck a rescission is, but know that they want the wasteful spending to end."
Moore is leading the Republican Study Committee's (RSC) new task force, aimed at getting both fellow House Republicans and members of the American public on board with the GOP on a mechanism for spending cuts known as rescissions.
Rescissions proposals are requests from the White House for cuts to funding already approved by Congress in the current fiscal year.
Once submitted to Capitol Hill, lawmakers have 45 days to pass the proposal, or it is considered rejected.
