Economic Progress
America is in the middle of an economic crisis. Unsustainable government spending and burdensome regulations have driven up inflation and resulted in high food, energy, and housing costs — limiting the economic progress of nearly every American. That’s why we’re working to reduce wasteful spending, unleash energy abundance, and empower workers to prove prosperity is still possible and together we can reignite the American Dream.
Priorities
- Ending Washington’s wasteful spending through unified budgets and other responsible fiscal practices.
- Eliminating corporate handouts that pick winners and losers at the expense of hardworking taxpayers.
- Giving workers more freedom and flexibility through labor reform.
- Repealing the regulations that keep businesses, entrepreneurs, and communities from moving forward.
