Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry launches DOGE-like government savings initiative • Louisiana Illuminator

Following in the footsteps of President-elect Donald Trump, Gov. Jeff Landry will establish a program to seek out waste and inefficiency in state government. 

Landry signed an executive order Thursday to establish a new government efficiency task force and named oil and gas executive Steve Orlando as the state’s new Financial Responsibility czar. He will be in charge of overseeing a new Fiscal Responsibility Program and calling its meetings.

He and other members of the task force are supposed to evaluate the state’s current expenditures, state contracts and staffing levels for potential cuts.

The group’s first report is due Dec. 31, 2025.
