The Trump administration is keeping its promises to the American people.
The Department of Transportation has purged over 3,000 woke grants from the Biden administration.
The Trump administration awarded 180 of the 3,200 infrastructure grants.
Of the ones that were awarded, all social justice, DEI, and Green New Deal elements were removed.
President Donald Trump’s Department of Transportation (DOT) has purged 3,200 grants, left behind by President Joe Biden, of various social justice and Diversity, Equity and Inclusion initiatives, while clearing a backlog of funding to kickstart infrastructure projects, the Daily Caller has learned.
The DOT is planning to announce Tuesday that they have awarded 180 of the 3,200 infrastructure grants that were previously backlogged under the Biden administration, according to materials shared with the Caller. The grants were previously under review by the department for social justice, DEI and Green New Deal initiatives, the Caller previously reported. With the Department’s Tuesday action, some of the 3,200 grants backlogged, totaling more than $3.2 billion, have been awarded for various projects but stripped of any social justice, DEI and Green New Deal elements, according to materials shared with the Caller.
“America is building again. At the Department of Transportation, that means getting back to basics: Building More, Building Efficiently and Building Quickly. The last administration liked to grab the headlines but didn’t want to do the hard work of building,” Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy said in a statement shared with the Caller.
“They also tied road construction up with red tape and leftist social requirements – adding millions in costs and months of delay – all while our outdated infrastructure sat in disrepair. This administration has a different vision: drain the swamp and make government work for the American people,” he continued.
This isn’t the only area in which the Trump administration is saving taxpayers money.
DOGE claims they have saved over $1,000 per American taxpayer.
The Elon Musk-backed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) said in a recent update that it has now helped save $165 billion, amounting to more than $1,000 per taxpayer.
In an update on May 3, DOGE said that the savings have come via a combination of asset sales, contract or lease cancellations, terminations of fraudulent or improper payments, grant cancellations, regulatory savings, workforce reductions, and more.
It amounts to around $1,024.84 saved per taxpayer, according to the organization that was established by President Donald Trump in January.
