Fourteen months into his first term, President Trump and his administration have accomplished some remarkable things. Defense Secretary Jim Mattis and U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley have projected a renewed America First foreign policy around the world. Throughout the administration, agencies have begun the important work of rolling back regulatory burdens imposed by the bureaucracy of the last decade.
Likewise, Republicans in the House of Representative have made progress on many of the important things voters expect us to do. The House has passed legislation to overhaul the regulatory process, such as the REINS Act, so that the Obama-era regulatory onslaught can never happen again. The Financial CHOICE Act would end the prospect of taxpayer financed bailouts of “too-big-to-fail” financial institutions. The House passed all 12 appropriations bills before the deadline in a way that would have been both fiscally responsible and provided necessary funding for our national security. We’ve worked hard to fulfill the promise to repeal and replace Obamacare to give hard-working Americans freedom and choice. We even passed a balanced budget that would have cleared the way for tax reform and also allowed hundreds of billions in mandatory spending reforms without the excuse of the filibuster in the Senate.
