Rep. French Hill (R-AR) said during an interview over the weekend that Republicans were united to implement President-elect Donald Trump’s agenda once he takes over in January.
Hill made the remarks during a Sunday CBS News interview with Margaret Brennan on “Face The Nation” when asked how united Republicans would be given the chaos that unfolded last week in trying to pass a stopgap spending bill.
“I think it’s very, very important that Speaker Johnson and incoming Majority Leader Thune have a steady plan together to work with the incoming Trump administration to prioritize the president’s priorities, our priorities in the House and Senate, make sure we’re on the same page because with narrow majorities we’ve got to work together,” he said. “And that’s critical. And I think this last week demonstrated that.”
He said that House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) and Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) are considering using the budget reconciliation process to ram Trump’s agenda through.
“That’s still being discussed as to exactly what that procedure will be,” he said. “But I believe actually that Republicans on both sides of The Hill are united that we want to unleash American energy for future production and an all of the above energy strategy.”
“We want to secure the border,” he continued. “We want to fight inflation through supply side regulatory reforms. We want to roll back those regulations that are constraining the markets and constraining private business having access to capital.”
He said that Republicans were all on the same page and they also wanted to “rein in unsustainable $2 trillion deficits.”
