May 2, 2025 – Day 102: USDOT Cuts Waste
On Day 102, @DOGE announced: “Great job by @SecDuffy and @USDOT for terminating 7 wasteful grants with award value of $54M and savings of $51M, including: -$6M for ‘collaborative planning to address safety concerns of women and gender non-conforming people’ -$12M for ‘accelerating equitable decarbonization’ -$6M for ‘hyperlocal pollution exposure inequalities’ in New York City. The @USDOT is working hard to cut waste and will have more to report over the coming weeks!” These cuts focus on core transportation priorities, though some argue they limit equity and environmental efforts.
