Comprehensive Plan for Reorganizing the Executive Branch

What it means

Directs the Office of Management and Budget to create a comprehensive plan to reorganize the executive branch. Agency heads must submit proposals to improve efficiency, with the OMB Director ultimately recommending which agencies, components, or programs should be eliminated or merged.

Expected impact

• Potential streamlining of government operations by identifying and eliminating redundant functions
• Possible shifts of certain federal responsibilities to state/local governments or private sector
• Cost savings through consolidation of administrative capabilities across agencies
• Creation of a more accountable and effective federal government structure
• Some uncertainty for federal employees whose agencies might be targeted for reorganization
