Whip Emmer: “On November 5th, 77 million Americans gave Donald Trump a mandate to deliver on our America First agenda. Americans voted to secure our borders, unleash American energy, grow the U.S. economy, bolster our great military, and prevent the largest tax hike in American history. They voted to make America great again by reversing the damage Joe Biden and Kamala Harris did to our country over the last four years. And House Republicans have put forward a budget that establishes a clear path to do just that. Now is the time to act and get a budget over to the Senate. And it’s important to remember that our budget resolution merely unlocks the opportunity for committees to begin drafting legislation. That is where the real work begins. So, I’d caution the media against echoing Democrats’ hysteria on where savings will come from. Our budget resolution is a blueprint to Save America and reign in reckless and wasteful spending while delivering on President Trump’s campaign promises. We have been given a historic opportunity with a Trump Trifecta. And every Member of our Conference plays an important role in ensuring we get it done. This is our moment. Now it’s time to go out there and do it.”
