Congress can pass legislation this year that would make a significant difference in the lives of Americans. Despite the perception of partisan gridlock, broad support exists for many important domestic economic policy reforms. These policies are ambitious but achievable, and, if adopted, would promote economic growth, empower individuals, and reduce government waste.
Today I’ll be taking part in Heritage Action for America’s 2015 Policy Summit. This event, titled “Opportunity for All, Favoritism to None,” highlights key opportunities for the new Congress to roll-back the reach of government into our lives. The summit covers issues that range from financial market and energy regulations to healthcare and education reform. The best opportunities for success often occur within the first 100 days of a new Congress, and broad support already exists for many important policy reforms. The Heritage Action summit highlights these issues.
