Speaker McCarthy, Balance the Budget to Save America

Speaker Kevin McCarthy and the House Republicans have a tremendous opportunity to create a better American future. If they can successfully carry out the will of the American people, we will get to lower spending, less inflation, and eventually a balanced federal budget.

The work we did in the 1990s led to the only four consecutive balanced federal budgets in our lifetime. It allowed us to start paying down the national debt. The budget and debt are much larger today, but there are several key principles that can help us transition back to a balanced budget by 2033. 
 

Start With Public Opinion

We consistently paid attention to public opinion in the 1990s, from developing the Contract with America, to reforming welfare and Medicare, to balancing the budget.
