State Level DOGE Inspired Task Forces Watchlist

As of 2025 state and county level task forces begun popping up across the United States. While some have picked less conspicuous official names such as “Red Tape Relief Project” and “Fiscal Responsibility Program,” all were announced as “DOGE-inspired.”

There is 100% a reason a gigantic shadow network of wealthy individuals linked to the heritage foundation is quietly pushing policies at state levels across the country while hiding behind claims of small government and transparency.

By the time the federal government completely collapses they will have everything in place to start over with their new network of support built and ready to go: New laws, new military forces, a new secret police (DOGE task forces), and a new America created to protect the interests of the wealthiest individuals and corporations on the planet. This has been in the works for decades, and even if we can't stop them, we should not be quiet about this, and we should definitely not be making things any easier on them. When you see something, make some noise and help me call this shit out!

Current list of state task forces that are constantly growing:

•Florida

•Georgia

•Iowa

•Kansas

•Kentucky

•Louisiana (Fiscal Responsibility Program)

•Missouri

•Montana (Red Tape Relief Project)

•New Hampshire

•North Carolina

•North Dakota

•Oklahoma

•South Carolina

•Tennessee (State level and at least one county level in Hamilton County)

•Texas

•Wisconsin

This is a place to report or discuss any news related to these groups or for news and discussion of any corruption going on at smaller levels. Even outside of the United States. If you have an example of smaller level corruption that needs to be called out, drop it here.

Even if you live in the most liberal blue state, you should be aware you have a Heritage Foundation affiliate pushing their policies at your state level. (toad.social)

The State Policy Network (SPN) is a network of conservative and "libertarian" think tanks hiding behind claims of transparency and small government while all promoting the same White House policies across all 50 states.

I won't link it here, but they are very easy to find. To find out who is pushing these policies in your state, you can go to their homepage and scroll down to their convenient drop down list to search for members by each state.

If you want to avoid going to their website, there's a good chance you can just find one near you by typing the name of your state + "policy institute" in a search engine.

These people are really not the most creative and the names and logos used by these network affiliates are nearly identical across several states.

As of March 2025, most are pushing the same copy paste messages, praising Musk and DOGE for doing such a great job cutting through ::insert:: "red tape" "bureaucracy" and/or "government bloat."

While SPN has tried to downplay their connection to the Heritage Foundation in recent years, an archived copy of their 2015 history page provides a much more transparent and direct account.

SPN's founder, South Carolina businessman Thomas Roe, was an early funder of the Heritage Foundation and served on the board of trustees for two decades.

Here is a 2011 article discussing Roe, SPN's "freedom centers" across all 50 states, and the Union busting tactics they were pushing at a state level even back then.

Although for some reason SPN's website does not mention this information in the dedicated section to their late founder, you can read more about the insane number of controversies tied to Roe and his shadowy money here: https://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Roe_Foundation
