Multiple attendees at the 2025 Conservative Political Action Committee spoke in high regard of the work that the Department of Government Efficiency is doing with cuts to federal government spending, including the possibility of households receiving $5,000 checks from the money saved.

DOGE head Elon Musk hinted at this possibility on Wednesday, stating that he would “check with the president” over what some have deemed DOGE dividend checks for taxpayers next year. While some have raised concerns over these possible checks causing inflation, many CPAC attendees were welcoming of the possibility, specifically regarding how it would showcase the work that DOGE has done for voters.
