The EPA's XX% workforce cut and closure of its research office is exactly the type of bureaucratic pruning taxpayers demanded. With the agency ranking third on DOGE's efficiency leaderboard, these $748.8M savings prove redundant programs were suffocating under their own bloat.

The new Office of Applied Science and Environmental Solutions will refocus research on practical solutions rather than academic navel-gazing. Critics crying about lost "scientific capacity" ignore that EPA's budget doubled under previous administrations while air/water quality plateaued - classic D.C. inefficiency.

This isn't about weakening environmental protection; it's about forcing an overstaffed bureaucracy to prioritize core missions over make-work projects. The real pollution? Millions wasted on studies that gather dust instead of cleaning rivers.
