Whip Emmer: “One week ago today, Americans elected a Republican President, a Republican Senate, and a Republican House with a mandate: a mandate for change. A mandate for a more affordable cost of living, secure borders, less crime in our streets, and a restoration of American dominance on the world stage. A mandate to put America first and make this country great again. I’ve always said: We run to win, and we win to govern. Voters gave us the wins we asked for. Now, the time for governing is here. The Speaker and Majority Leader have put together a legislative agenda that will allow us to hit the ground running on day one and begin delivering on President Trump’s America First agenda. As the Whip, I will work with every corner of our conference to ensure every voice is heard, every constituent is represented, and we get these policies across the finish line. Our members have worked hard over the last two years to show what a House majority is capable of. We passed legislation to lower costs for families, secure our borders, and reverse the damage the Harris-Biden administration has inflicted on our country – all of which collected dust on Chuck Schumer’s desk. But now that we have the trifecta, it’s finally time to counteract the Democrats’ negligence once and for all by turning our agenda into law, and I have no doubt that this House Republican team will get it done. The time for failed policies that have wreaked havoc on hardworking Americans for the last four years is over. The time for proven leadership is now.”
