Republicans say billions of taxpayer dollars have been wasted based on unused federal office space and employees taking advantage of the White House’s liberal work from home policies.
Damning reports reveal government employees have been in meetings while taking bubble baths, still got paid while on the golf course and attended happy hours while on the clock.
More than 75 percent of the available office space at 17 different federal agencies is still empty, according to the Government Accountability Office.
Now the GOP have a message for the White House: Get employees back to work or sell the offices to pay off the spiraling national debt.
The Biden administration last month told federal employees to come back to the office, and local officials in Washington have said the empty buildings are hurting the economy.
Agencies spend about $2 billion a year to operate and maintain federal office buildings and over $5 billion annually in leases.
Sen. Joni Ernst, R-Iowa, told DailyMail.com that Biden must hold a ‘clearance sale on unused office space’ – which could help pay off the $32.9 trillion in U.S. national debt.
