Contributing sentiments towards policy:

58% : " "We're reviewing VA's various contracts, and we will be canceling many focusing on non-mission critical things like PowerPoint slides, executive support, and coaching," they said.
44% : " The VA was gearing up to terminate the contracts as part of the Trump administration's move to cut costs and the civilian workforce across the federal government, led by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
