DEPARTMENT OF GOVERNMENTAL EFFICIENCY (DOGE) – Adds to existing law to establish the Department of Governmental Efficiency Task Force.

H 364 establishes a nine-member legislative task force called the Department of Governmental Efficiency (DOGE) to review state agency operations and identify ways to reduce costs and improve efficiency. The task force, appointed by legislative leaders, will operate until November 2029 and focus on three areas: reducing regulatory burdens (aiming to shift most regulations to statute by 2033), eliminating wasteful spending through budget reviews, and streamlining government structures. It may use technology like AI for efficiency and must submit annual reports to the legislature. The bill is procedural and does not create new spending or immediate policy changes.
