Sen. Ernst delivers legislation to clear way for disposal of buildings worth hundreds of millionsPresident Donald Trump has used his business expertise to advocate for Americans' finances in the White House, from demanding better trade deals with foreign nations to fighting inflation, which exploded to more than 9% for a while under Joe Biden.
One plan to save money, even generate income, now is being advanced by Sen. Joni Ernst R-Iowa, who has proposed the idea of letting the government sell its vacant buildings, eliminating ongoing maintenance costs and even generating sales price income.
"For too long, the entrenched bureaucracy has used red tape to prevent these ghost towns from being sold off," she said, in a report at Fox News.
The Disposal Act "immediately lists six prime pieces of D.C. real estate on the auction block and slashes through pointless regulations to fast-track the sale of the government's graveyard of lifeless real estate to generate hundreds of millions of dollars and save taxpayers billions," the report said.
