This study analyzes how the mass media frames the issue of government budget efficiency and its impact on the hotel industry in Indonesia. This issue emerged after the issuance of Presidential Instruction No. 1 of 2025 and a circular from the Ministry of Finance that cut state spending by IDR 306.69 trillion. This cut had a major impact on the service sector, especially hotels, which experienced a decline in occupancy and a wave of layoffs. The study employed a qualitative approach, utilizing Robert Entman's framing analysis method, on four articles from Kompas.id, Infobanknews.com, MetroTVnews.com, and Detik.com. The results show differences in defining problems, determining causes, providing moral judgments, and offering solutions. The media not only shapes public perception, but also becomes an arena for the contestation of meaning over state policies
