Trump’s order also caps the total number of advisory bodies across the government at 350. That’s a sharp decrease from approximately 1,000 total committees at federal agencies at any given time, according to the General Services Administration.
I completely agree with your assessment of the situation. We need more people like you who are willing to speak out and take action.
