Republicans' New Policy Agenda Revealed Today
from Elections 2010 (The Takeaway)
House Republicans unveil the blueprint of their new policy agenda, to be used in the next Congress if they win back a majority in November's elections. It's the first time the GOP has released a political agenda of this nature since 1994's "Contract With America." The new plan consists of a 21-page document entitled “Pledge to America.” (The text can be found on Taegan Goddard's Political Wire.) Some of the key issues addressed are, not surprisingly, taxes, defense and a plan to “repeal and replace the government takeover of health care with common-sense solutions…” Soren Dayton, a Republican consultant and activist, worked for John McCain's presidential campaign. He joins us to help unpack this much-anticipated Republican agenda. Dayton is also the co-founder of the blog, thenextright.com.
