On Monday, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) announced that his administration is launching a state-level Department of Government Efficiency, stating that he took inspiration from the federal agency and Elon Musk's efforts to eliminate government waste.
He noted that the federal DOGE has used "artificial intelligence to be able to police the payments and the operations and the contracts," stating that he would like Florida to adopt similar strategies.
"Today, I am pleased to announce that we are launching a comprehensive initiative to continue to streamline our government, and to continue to eliminate unnecessary bureaucracy, and to continue to ensure tax dollars are used in the most efficient way possible," DeSantis stated on Monday. "We are creating a state DOGE task force that will implement a multiprong approach to eliminating bureaucratic bloat and modernizing our state government to best serve the people of Florida in the years ahead."
