Overview

• The Delivering on Government Efficiency subcommittee, chaired by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, held a contentious hearing on transgender women in sports rather than government spending oversight.
• Democratic Rep. Melanie Stansbury motioned to adjourn the hearing, calling it irrelevant to the subcommittee's mandate; the motion was defeated along party lines.
• Chair Greene accused transgender women of unfairly competing in sports, prompting heated exchanges and accusations of spreading hate from Democrats.
• Rep. Stephen Lynch demanded a timekeeper to ensure equal speaking time as Greene repeatedly banged her gavel while struggling to maintain order.
• The subcommittee, tied to Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency, has faced criticism for focusing on social issues instead of its stated goal of improving federal efficiency.
