Will support efforts to bring greater transparency to federal spending and root out waste, fraud, and abuse.
Occurrences
Congresswoman Bice is working to rein in Washington’s out-of-control spending... continues to push for accountability in how taxpayer dollars are spent.
Evidence
The issue page states that during her time in Congress, Bice will support efforts to bring greater transparency to federal spending and to root out waste, fraud, and abuse.
Bice introduced H.R. 10177 to prohibit grants for duplicative or fraudulent applications, require a federal tracking and deconfliction system, and direct a report on using AI to identify duplicative grant applications and waste, fraud, and abuse.
Bice said the House voted to eliminate $9.4 billion in unobligated spending across State, USAID, CBP, and other programs through 22 rescissions.
Assessments
The promise was framed as supporting efforts to increase transparency in federal spending and address waste, fraud, and abuse. The evidence shows Bice took concrete same-term actions aligned with that pledge, including introducing H.R. 10177 targeting duplicative or fraudulent federal grant applications and backing a rescission package to claw back unobligated federal funds. Because the commitment was to support such efforts rather than guarantee enactment or measurable government-wide savings, these actions satisfy the promised conduct.
