Introducing the Republican Commitment to America

Contact Your Elected Officials

When you and your family go shopping, you probably ask yourself: “can we afford this?” Now — more than ever —Americans are struggling to get by and worried if they can make ends meet. What’s worse – our country’s suffering extends beyond just the grocery store.

  • Violent crime is at record highs in our streets and neighborhoods.
  • The border has become a national security crisis, with fentanyl killing our fellow citizens.
  • Soaring inflation has shrunk paychecks and sent us into a recession.
  • And our kids have fallen further behind thanks to school closures and lockdowns.

The White House and the Democrat majority in Congress control Washington. They’re in charge. This is THEIR RECORD – and yet, they want you to give them two more years of power.

But Republicans have a plan for a new direction, one that will get our country back on track. It’s called the Commitment to America.

A plan for an Economy that’s strong – where you can feed your family and fill up your tank.
A Nation that’s safe – where communities are protected by the police and criminals are prosecuted.
A Future that’s built on freedom – where your children come first and are taught to dream big.
And a Government that’s accountable – where politicians don’t get special treatment.

We simply cannot afford two more years of business as usual in Washington. We need common sense change now. If you agree, join us—and tens of millions more across this great country. Because people like you — who work hard and play by the rules — deserve better.

Preamble

America is exceptional.

As Americans, we cherish our rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

We salute those who paid the ultimate sacrifice in defense of our freedoms.

We celebrate the rich heritage of the American story and the vibrancy of the American Dream.

And we embrace the responsibility to protect and uphold all that has made this nation the world’s shining beacon of hope.


Unfortunately, over the past two years, Democrats in Washington have led America off-track.

They created crisis after crisis: from crippling inflation and rampant crime, to failing schools, border chaos, and disrespect for our nation across the globe.

Worse still, they have ignored our constituents’ priorities and shown contempt for their values.

We will not allow it.

The Commitment to America represents a new direction and better approach that will get our nation back on track.

Because Americans are workers and builders, we commit to remove government-imposed obstacles to their success. Hardworking taxpayers should be valued, not punished.

Because no American should live in fear, we commit to reverse soft-on-crime policies that have caused violence in our communities. Public safety is a necessity, not a privilege.

Because Americans are learners and dreamers, we commit to advance excellence in education and respect for dedicated parents and teachers. Our future depends on it.

And because Americans deserve fairness and real accountability, we commit to make Washington finally serve the needs of the people. We can no longer afford business as usual.

We will work with anyone who shares these goals—as long as they put people before politics.

But the extreme ideology of this Democrat majority blinds them to the challenges of everyday Americans.

They are simply too partisan and out-of-touch to correct course now. So be it.

Starting Day One, we will work to deliver an economy that’s strong, a nation that’s safe, a future that’s built on freedom, and a government that’s accountable.

This is our Commitment to America. And in a Congress restored to the American people, we will do everything in our power to make it a reality.

An Economy That’s Strong

Fight Inflation and Lower the Cost of Living

Everyone knew that wasteful Washington spending would spur inflation. Millions in hardworking taxpayer dollars were sent to luxury resorts and ski slopes, even stimulus checks to prisoners like the Boston Marathon bomber. Yet after more than a year of crushing inflation, Democrats still have no plan to solve it. Americans can’t afford Democrats’ policies, but we are certainly all paying for them.

  • Total government spending has increased by over $9 trillion since February 2021
  • In June, inflation had increased nearly 550% under this Administration
  • Year-over-year food prices are edging up 13.5%, the largest increase ever

Make America Energy Independent and Reduce Gas Prices

Not long ago, America was the largest energy producer in the world and gas was affordable. The Biden Administration then halted energy projects, shut down pipeline construction, and took every step to discourage the production of American energy resources. Americans shouldn’t have to choose between driving to work and putting food on the table.

  • Gas prices shot up more than 60% under the current Administration
  • While the Biden Administration canceled leases and discouraged oil and gas production on day one, Presidents Trump and Obama each approved 10 times as many leases during the same period of their presidencies
  • Electricity prices are up 20% since Biden took office

Strengthen the Supply Chain and End Dependence on China

  • Nearly 80% of small businesses said supply chain issues have persisted or gotten worse in the last three months
  • In June, baby formula was out of stock in over 70% of the country
  • Fertilizer prices have increased 30% in 2022, after increasing by 80% in 2021

The frightening supply shock of baby formula this year was the tip of the iceberg of a broken supply chain that has increased costs and left store shelves empty. Record inflation is driving increases in the price of everyday essentials, while our country remains dangerously reliant on foreign countries like China for critical supplies, medicines, and technology.

We have a plan to restock our shelves and get people the goods they need:

  • Move supply chains away from China
  • Expand U.S. manufacturing
  • Enhance America’s economic competitiveness and cyber resiliency

The Biden administration knew last year that a nationwide shortage of baby formula could happen but failed to prevent it. The silence from the White House and the FDA was unacceptable as parents across the country worried about feeding their children. Unfortunately, Democrats in Washington prioritized pushing through their social spending and tax scams before addressing our supply chain and ports crises. Now, American consumers have been left paying the price.

Republicans will:

Fight Inflation and Lower the Cost of Living

  • Curb wasteful government spending that is raising the price of groceries, gas, cars, and housing, and growing our national debt
  • Increase take-home pay, create good-paying jobs, and bring stability to the economy through pro-growth tax and deregulatory policies

Make America Energy Independent and Reduce Gas Prices

  • Maximize production of reliable, cleaner, American-made energy and cut the permitting process time in half to reduce reliance on foreign countries, prevent rolling blackouts, and lower the cost of gas and utilities

Strengthen the Supply Chain and End Dependence on China

  • Move supply chains away from China, expand U.S. manufacturing, and enhance America’s economic competitiveness and cyber resiliency

A Nation That’s Safe

Secure the Border and Combat Illegal Immigration

Record illegal border crossings under this Administration have led to more drugs, more crime, and a demoralized Border Patrol who are hamstrung from carrying out their law enforcement mission. The situation at the border has become both a national security and humanitarian crisis and must be addressed immediately.

  • 3,588,875 illegal border crossings under President Biden
  • 900,000 Known “Got-Aways”
  • Individuals from over 160 countries have crossed the border

Reduce Crime and Protect Public Safety

As a result of “Defund the Police” efforts, law enforcement officers across the country are facing the toughest working conditions in years—to say nothing of the liberal prosecutors and district attorneys who fail to do their job and keep criminals off the streets. At the same time, illicit fentanyl is flowing into our country and robbing an entire generation of Americans from a chance at the life they deserve.

  • Highest murder rate in over 20 years in 2021
  • 20 year high of intentional killings of law enforcement
  • 300 Americans die from fentanyl poisoning every week, the leading cause of death for adults 18-45

Defend America’s National Security

President Biden has managed America’s security from a position of weakness and incompetence. He failed to stand up to the brutal Chinese Communist Party, sought to cut deals with the radical Iranian regime that would endanger America and our ally Israel, promoted Russian energy, and directly caused the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan that killed 13 brave U.S. service members. This America Last foreign policy endangers us all.

  • $7 billion in U.S. military equipment left behind following the botched Afghanistan withdrawal
  • The percentage of Americans who have “a great deal of trust and confidence” in the U.S. military
  • The Chinese navy is now the largest in the world, with roughly 360 vessels in their fleet.

Republicans will:

Secure the Border and Combat Illegal Immigration

  • Fully fund effective border enforcement strategies, infrastructure, and advanced technology to prevent illegal crossings and trafficking by cartels
  • End catch-and-release loopholes, require legal status to get a job, and eliminate welfare incentives

Reduce Crime and Protect Public Safety

  • Support 200,000 more police officers through recruiting bonuses and oppose all efforts to defund the police
  • Crack down on prosecutors and district attorneys who refuse to prosecute crimes, while permanently criminalizing all forms of illicit fentanyl

Defend America’s National Security

  • Support our troops, invest in an efficient, effective military, establish a Select Committee on China, and exercise peace through strength with our allies to counter increasing global threats

A Future That’s Built On Freedom

Make Sure Every Student Can Succeed and Give Parents a Voice

When schools shut down, teachers unions still got paid but students bore the costs. All studies show that “virtual schooling” has caused severe learning and development loss that will take years to make up. What’s worse, when parents tried to understand what their children were being taught and how their tax dollars were being spent, they weren’t just ignored—they were targeted by this Administration.

  • Overall confidence in public schools is now at just 28%
  • TWO DECADES of progress in math and reading scores were erased in 2022
  • The Biden Justice Department labeled parents seeking to attend school board meetings as “DOMESTIC TERRORISTS”

Achieve Longer, Healthier Lives for Americans

America is home to the best medical care in the world thanks to talented doctors and innovative treatments. But Democrats are determined to squander all these advantages by imposing a top-down, one-size-fits-all government approach from Washington that will only lead to rationed care and worse services.

  • U.S. life expectancy has decreased for two straight years, representing the biggest drop since 1943
  • The Democrats’ drug takeover scheme could lead to 135 fewer lifesaving treatments and cures
  • 17% Health insurance inflation has increased premiums by 17% over the past year

Confront Big Tech and Demand Fairness

The age of social media promised to connect us with new people and ideas. Instead, Big Tech has tipped the scales to silence and censor those with conservative viewpoints. Worse than crystalizing an ideological echo chamber, these apps have proven to be incredibly addictive for children with potentially devastating consequences.

  • Children ages 8-18 years old now spend 7 1/2 hours per day on average in front of a screen
  • 70% of Republican campaign emails go to spam on Google Mail, compared to just 10% of Democrat campaign emails
  • 70% of Republican campaign emails go to spam on Google Mail, compared to just 10% of Democrat campaign emails

Republicans will:

Make Sure Every Student Can Succeed and Give Parents a Voice

  • Advance the Parents’ Bill of Rights, recover lost learning from school closures, and expand parental choice so over a million more students can receive the education their parents know is best
  • Defend fairness by ensuring that only women can compete in women’s sports

Achieve Longer, Healthier Lives for Americans

  • Personalize care to provide affordable options and better quality, delivered by trusted doctors
  • Lower prices through transparency, choice, and competition, invest in lifesaving cures, and improve access to telemedicine

Confront Big Tech and Demand Fairness

  • Provide greater privacy and data security protections, equip parents with more tools to keep their kids safe online, and stop companies from putting politics ahead of people

A Government That’s Accountable

Preserve Our Constitutional Freedoms

No administration should pick and choose which freedoms it will preserve and for whom. This represents a government totally out of touch with the values on which our country was founded. It’s time we remember that all men and women are created equal and endowed with God-given rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

  • More than 14 whistleblowers have come forward to publicly raise concerns about the FBI’s politicization
  • Democrats are poised to hire an army of 87,000 IRS agents—to audit middle-class Americans
  • Government mandated lockdowns wiped out 20 years of student gains in math and reading

Hold Washington Accountable

Government should work for the people, not against them. But under one-party rule, Democrats have used their power to silence critics and avoid genuine scrutiny. When faced with obvious abuses of power, Democrats in Congress simply bury their heads in the sand.

  • Zero House hearings on the origins of COVID
  • Zero House hearings on the Biden Administration’s failure in Afghanistan
  • Zero House hearings on Biden’s Justice Department labeling parents as “domestic terrorists”

Restore the People’s Voice

Democrats have sought to undermine the constitutional principle of one-person, one-vote by rejecting common sense changes that majorities of Americans support. In the House, Democrats created a “voting-by-proxy” system that allows Members of Congress to get paid without ever needing to show up for work.

  • 80% of Americans support voter ID requirements
  • 90% of House Democrats have received a paycheck to vote from home, rather than showing up in Washington to do their jobs

Republican will:

Preserve Our Constitutional Freedoms

  • Uphold free speech, protect the lives of unborn children and their mothers, guarantee religious freedom, and safeguard the Second Amendment

Hold Washington Accountable

  • Conduct rigorous oversight to rein in government abuse of power and corruption, provide real transparency, and require the White House to answer for its incompetence at home and abroad
  • Save and strengthen Social Security and Medicare

Restore the People’s Voice

  • End special treatment for Members of Congress by repealing proxy voting, and increase accountability in the election process through voter ID, accurate voter rolls, and observer access
