House GOP leaders are readying an agenda that their members can all get behind if, or perhaps when, they retake the majority this fall. Translating that unity into floor votes will be the real challenge.

Plus, they likely need to anticipate input from former President Donald Trump as he continues to try to exert his influence over the party.

Some work has already begun to prepare those more recalcitrant Republicans for the “heavy lifting” of the majority, according to several GOP lawmakers who addressed those discussions on condition of anonymity. In private meetings, McCarthy and senior Republicans have stressed to newer members that they can’t tackle their agenda unless they can do the basics — including voting for a government spending deal.

For now, many Republicans described the singular focus of the retreat as figuring out which policy areas, including energy prices, health care, China, border security and reining in big tech companies, have enough agreement within the conference to actually turn into bill text. That mentality showed as GOP leaders brought in former Speaker Newt Gingrich to speak to the conference during its Florida sojourn. Lawmakers said his message was less about the tools of obstruction — which Gingrich famously deployed against then-President Bill Clinton — and more about the positive power of their agenda to “save America,” according to multiple people who listened.

The GOP has the public agenda (promote guns, rid abortion clinics, CRT etc. The kinds of things they feed their base to keep them in line). Then, the undercover agenda (how to thwart any policies that help middle and lower classes and promote the wealthy and big business).

Hey GOPLeader did you run this plan by DonaldTrump for his approval? Republicans couldn't formulate a party platform in 2020 because of Trump. If he doesn't approve, it's not gonna happen. You party is a joke! And you will never be Speaker SpeakerPelosi

Sure

Their plan is to say they are planning on having a plan - soon..

Will be so sad when these imbeciles retake the house

That's a fancy way to describe nihilists

I'm sure it will be wonderful with plenty of goodies for their rich donors.

And they are finishing up their 13 year new health plan. Oh wait. They haven't even started it yet. My bad.

Framing it like they'd actually do something to pass their massively unpopular agenda is a disservice to your readers

Will this be like when we the people said 'repeal or replace Obamacare' for YEARS just to have them show up with no plan or idea how to fix our junk healthcare?

No, they’re not. An “agenda” means “policies”. I promise you the GOP has no policies in mind.

Slogans are not plans.

Republicans aren’t taking the majority back !!!!

Agenda is a loaded word

After years without an agenda they are trying to firm up their liars club. The country will continue to fall.

This is the most politico headline

You mean the 'screw America' agenda.

“Save” like throwing a brick at a drowning person. No thanks.

Remember January 6, 2021 when republicans attacked the capital and tried to overthrow our democracy? Now we find out the wife if SCOTUS Thomas was spearheading that coup!

Are you seriously parroting the propaganda that these are people who want to 'save' America?

The four core values driving republicans: 1. Accumulation and concentration of power 2. Radical upwards redistribution of wealth 3. Voter suppression 4. Eugenicism

Texas health providers are suspending gender-affirming care for teens in response to GOP effortsHospitals across the state have already started restricting critical treatment as health care providers fear legal consequences and worry they could lose their medical licenses. Meanwhile, teenagers are already leaving the state to get care or avoiding medical care altogether. I wish they would stay and help vote against these fools but I understand wanting to live somewhere that appreciates human rights. Beyond horrifying! TransRightsAreHumanRights
