Contract with America, a document signed Sept. 27, 1994, on the Capitol steps in Washington, D.C., by members of the Republican minority before the Republican Party gained control of Congress in 1994. The “Contract with America” outlined legislation to be enacted by the House of Representatives within the first 100 days of the 104th Congress (1995–96). Among the proposals were tax cuts, a permanent line-item veto, measures to reduce crime and provide middle-class tax relief, and constitutional amendments requiring term limits and a balanced budget. With the exception of the constitutional amendment for term limits, all parts of the “Contract with America” were passed by the House, under the leadership of the speaker of the House, Newt Gingrich.

I am convinced now, more than ever, that if the conservatives in Congress offer A Contract With America Version-2020 they will "sweep" and I mean "sweep" both houses and the presidency. In fact, I'm betting 48 to 50 states for Trump.
Please, at every opportunity, get this message out to your republican congressional officials. Tell them to adopt the 2020 Version of Contract With American!!!
For those of you here, who do not remember this momentous time in our history, I offer this excellent article.
However, the difference is we have a strong leader at the top who will set the promises set forth in the Contract With America.
AND EVERYONE WILL KNOW TRUMP WILL MAKE GOOD ON THIS PROMISE, BECAUSE HE'S ALREADY DONE THAT FOR US!!!!!!!!!
The Liberals’ plan is a ‘Contract ON America’
I like that!
Current POTUS is a man of contracts so now would be a good time. Rats can counter with theirs-they have none. 5-7 items would be about right, not 10. How about a contract wit black/millenial America?
2020 is in the bag. 2024 might be better. The pendulum tends to swing. This would be better than what we got in 88’.
Patriots need to elect a new patriot Congress in 2020 that will not only promise to fully support PDJT’s vision for MAGA, now KAG, but will also promise work within Congress's constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers.
“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.
Bump
I agree, and it will be a great first 100 days.
