"It's been 100 days since President Donald Trump returned to the White House, unleashing a torrent of executive orders, proclamations and policy reversals that have shaken long-standing norms," stated Marcus Baram, who oversees the DOGE Impact Tracker. "But the deeper human cost is being felt across the country, exacerbated by Trump and Elon Musk's DOGE, which has slashed agencies, gutted regulations and left thousands of Americans without critical services."
Among the many stories featured:
- In Louisiana, Mathew Roberts' family looks for answers after his death in a forklift accident — a tragedy that occurred just two weeks after DOGE announced plans to shutter the state's only OSHA office, potentially leaving critical safety investigations in limbo.
- In Phoenix, Army veteran Mark Puhl battles cancer linked to his exposure to military burn pits, only to be denied care after drastic DOGE-driven cuts to the Department of Veterans Affairs.
- In Massachusetts, 17-year-old Logan Damroth, living with autism and ADHD, saw his dreams derailed when DOGE axed a Department of Education program critical to his future.
These and dozens more stories are now live at Capital & Main's DOGE Impact Tracker, offering a continuous record of how these budget cuts and policy changes are impacting lives across America. The project is led by award-winning journalist Baram, a former Wall Street Journal and ABC News reporter, and is updated regularly with new original reporting and curated pieces.
"Capital & Main invites all media outlets and individuals to share these essential stories, embed the Tracker on your sites and help amplify the urgent human narratives behind the headlines," stated Danny Feingold, the founding publisher of Capital & Main.
