Colorado Governor Jared Polis symbolically cut 208 outdated executive orders to reduce bureaucracy and improve efficiency.

Colorado Governor Jared Polis cut 208 outdated executive orders with a power saw to streamline government operations and reduce bureaucracy. The orders, dating back to the 1920s, were deemed redundant and added unnecessary paperwork. This move aims to improve government efficiency, with some of the paper being used for an art project. The action precedes Elon Musk's suggestion for a federal "Department of Government Efficiency." Colorado Senate Republicans supported the move but called for broader regulatory reforms.
