New Hampshire Governor Kelly Ayotte has followed in President Donald Trump’s footsteps by creating a new panel aimed at improving government efficiency and cutting wasteful spending. The Commission on Government Efficiency will be led by former Governor Craig Benson and include business leaders like Andy Crews. The commission will also have lawmakers such as House Speaker Sherman Packard and state Sen. Mark McConkey as members.
Governor Ayotte expressed her commitment to making state government more effective while cutting spending and ensuring taxpayer value as well as taking care of vulnerable citizens. The commission will focus on streamlining government operations and cutting waste. It is unclear if the meetings will be public or if commissioners will be paid.
The creation of this commission is reminiscent of President Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) led by Elon Musk. The federal agency’s goal is to reduce government waste and increase transparency in spending. This new panel, led by Republicans but including Democratic lawmakers, aims to find better ways to serve the people of New Hampshire and save taxpayer dollars. Governor Ayotte’s focus on efficiency and cutting wasteful spending aligns with Trump’s administration’s goals, signaling a continuation of similar efforts at the state level.
