The provided sources consist of an email from Rep. Brian Babin to a constituent, David, dated July 20, 2025, discussing the recent passage of a rescissions package. This package aims to eliminate over $9 billion in federal spending, targeting what House Republicans deem “wasteful programs,” some of which were identified by President Trump and the Department of Government Efficiency. The email highlights specific cuts, including funding for “woke” projects like drag shows for kids and certain media subsidies, as well as foreign aid to organizations like the World Health Organization and various international programs. Rep. Babin emphasizes the package as a victory for taxpayers and accountability, framing it as part of a broader effort to restore fiscal sanity and “defund the radical Left’s agenda.”
