Rep. Guy Reschenthaler (R-PA) stressed that the Department of Government Efficiency‘s cost-cutting initiatives would provide the necessary “room” to fulfill President Donald Trump‘s campaign promises, adding that Congress needs to codify these cuts.
The Pennsylvania lawmaker said the president has “a mandate” to deliver results to voters, and passing “reconciliation” is Congress’s most important job at the moment. When asked about a potential tax increase under Trump’s watch, specifically due to the faction of the Republican Party that supports taxes, Reschenthaler said people have “underestimated” how House Republicans can come together in solidarity, and that the party needs to enact “permanency” with Trump’s 2017 tax cuts.
