Identifying and Eliminating Wasteful Programs Act

HR 1390 requires federal agencies to annually identify and eliminate unnecessary programs or activities that are redundant, defunct, duplicative, or could be managed more effectively by another agency. Agencies must compile these lists within 20 days after the President submits the annual budget and publish them in specific government program inventories. The lists are then submitted to relevant congressional committees, including the House and Senate Appropriations Committees. This process aims to increase transparency and streamline government operations through mandatory annual reviews of agency programs.
