GOP rolls out pre-election agenda

Weeks away from an election that offers the GOP the real prospects of regaining the majority in Congress, House Republicans have written an agenda calling for tax cuts, a reduction in government spending and a repeal of the new health care law, among other initiatives they say would help jump-start the economy.

Republicans have named their agenda “A Pledge To America,” a title reminiscent of the “Contract With America” drafted by the GOP before it won control of Congress in 1994.
