Trump inches closer to DC federal property sell-off with Ernst's help
Fox News
Republican Senator Joni Ernst introduces the Disposal Act to help the Trump administration sell underutilized federal buildings and generate revenue for taxpayers.
"For too long, the entrenched bureaucracy has used red tape to prevent these ghost towns from being sold off," she continued. Her Disposal Act "immediately lists six prime pieces of D.C. real estate on the auction block and slashes through pointless regulations to fast-track the sale of the government’s graveyard of lifeless real estate to generate hundreds of millions of dollars and save taxpayers billions."
Ernst is the founder and chair of the Senate Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) Caucus, and first exposed the federal government's lack of use of its federal buildings back in 2023 when she released a "naughty list of no-show federal agencies" following the pandemic, when federal employees worked from home amid government-mandated shutdowns.
