Lets wait a couple minutes until everybody comes down. Well, good morning. Sorry for taking a little longer. As you can see theres a lot of republicans here this morning because each and every one of us understand that america is worth fighting for. Republicans help build the greatest economy in a generation and the american way of life was thriving. We will do it again. That is our commitment to you. Two years ago Speaker Pelosi promised the American People the democrats would serve a responsibility to seek common ground. She did the complete opposite. The question is simple, what are the democrats results . Name me one problem the democrat majority in the house has solved. Democrats support defunding our police, and when asked about the violent protests the speaker expressed her support by saying, people will do what they do. Democrats want to dismantle our institutions, the democrats conducted the most partisan impeachment in history simply because they wanted to undo the results of an election that didnt go their way. Democrats want trils in new taxes and to use Small Business loans in the middle of a pandemic as ransom for the liberal wish list. Democrats are okay with destroying our economy. Nancy pelosi and the democrats broke the promise they made two years ago. Americans are fed up with politicians who say one thing and do another. Instead of empty rhetoric, they deserve results. This is why we are announcing a commitment to america with three specific objectives. First, restore our way of life. Second, rebuild the greatest economy. Third, renew the American Dream. Now let me say a few words about each objective. Republicans will restore our way of life and well defeat the coronavirus and keep america healthy. We will ensure the safety and security of all communities and uphold the constitutional liberties of every single american. Republicans will rebuilds the greatest economy in history. Weve done it once, and well do it again. Specifically, we will add 10 million good paying jobs with investments in distressed communities and support for american Small Businesses. While the democrats choose to ignore the threat from china, we will increase American Manufacturing and supply Chain Resilience by ending americas dependence on china. Americans will renew the American Dream. America is the land of opportunity. Were going to make sure every child can attend the best school for them. Our commitment to the next generation is also our commitment to the american worker, to earn new skills and thrive in industry for each and every person. As you can see the enthusiasm and the energy from our members, that is why theyve offered more than 150 policy proposals in building the commitment to america. We are united and ready to lead. In contrast to our democratic colleagues were taking the crisis before the country seriously and were taking the sacrifices our fellow citizens seriously. This is what the commitment to america is about. We will not abandon the American People but we will match their dedication. I urge all americans to join us. Go to commitment to america. Com and we will reunite this country once and for all. With that i want to introduce our whip, steve scalise. Thank you, kevin, and thank you for your leadership and the vision to confronts the challenges our country faces. Let me first start by expressing my thoughts and prayers to the people of the gulf coast from louisiana to mississippi to alabama to florida today who are facing hurricane sally. Were strong people. The preparations have been made over the last few days, but now just keep everybody in your prayers as that storm gets ready to touch ground. I want to talk about this important commitment to america. Lets start by recognizing just how great this country is. When you look at that capitol dome and everything thats represented from the statute of freedom on down, to the people who fight for freedom not just here in america, but for anybody around the world who yearns for freedom, this is the place they look to, america is worth fighting for. Thats what this commitment is all about. We know we have challenges, we know weve been through great challenges before as a nation and we know as we pull together were going to get through these challenges. Were going to do it by first restoring our way of life. As we confront this covid crisis, weve worked with this president to make sure theres funding at the National Institute of health and theres funding at cms, hhs and other agencies working to find a vaccine and other remedies and were on the doorstep of a safe and effective vaccine for covid because of that work. We also know that we need to confront china. While someone will shy away and hold their head in the sand and act like it didnt start in wuhan, china, we know not only did it start there but they lied to the world, they corrupted the World Health Organization while they were hoarding ppe and other vital lifesaving equipment. We should no longer be reliant on china for the things that are vital to Americas National security. We need to bring that manufacturing and those jobs back to america and thats our commitment. And as we get through this pandemic, we need to then focus on rebuilding the greatest economy this world has ever seen. We had already done that once working with President Trump to rebuild the strongest economy that was working for every american that sought opportunity. People at every income levels were benefiting, but people at the lowest income levels were benefiting the most because we were losing our middle class under the previous administration. Great jobs and Great Companies going to Foreign Countries and we put an end to that with smart, effective policy. We built that great economy once before. We will build that great economy once again. Finally, finally this gets back this great dome, this great statue of freedom and all it represents and that is renewing the American Dream. Because ultimately that why we come here, thats why we serve, thats why we leave our families, to come and ensure that every american, people of all walks of life that seek that same American Dream have that opportunity. Every american deserves that opportunity. Under this commitment to america every american will have the opportunity to seek the American Dream, and it will be real and alive for them just like it has been for every generation before us. We will renew, restore and rebuild this great nation. That is our commitment to america. Please join with us. We want everybody to be a part of this great journey. With that i will bring up our conference chair, liz cheney. Thank you very much, steve. Thank you all for being here today. America is facing truly unprecedented challenges, and the outcome of this election is going to determine how we face and address those challenges. The election is going to be about whether or not we defeat the virus, bring our economy back, whether we support our men and women in uniform, do whats necessary to defend our nation to defend our nation from the threat of china and russia and whether we stand for our history and founding values. Every single day the democrats tell us what they would do in as Kamala Harris put it yesterday, quote, a Harris Administration with joe biden. They would defund our police, dismantle our freedom, destroy our history and abandon our founding values. And every day you see the damage of years of democrat policies. Today we see the fires ravaging the american west, fires that are there because of the policies democrat centers leaving our forests to die. Schools that are failing to teach our kids about this and every day you see Speaker Pelosi acting like a partisan hack. The democrats leading this house care so little about the American People that they have scandered 17 months trying to score political points while our nation faces unprecedented challenges. We are committing today to the United States of america that if you give us a chance we will change that. We will defeat this virus and rebuild our economy. We will restore american strength, hold the Chinese CommunistParty Accountable and return power to the people all across this republic. And we will make sure that our children know the truth about this nation, this exceptional nation. Well make sure that our children know the unparallel contribution to freedom this nation has made, and that they know we enjoy the blessings of every one of those freedoms because of the men and women who wear the uniform of this country and who have sworn to protect us all. Please join us today. Thank you, god bless you, and god bless the United States of america. And now id like to turn things over to our colleague, the gentleman from minnesota, mr. Pete stauber. I am very proud to be here with my republican colleagues this morning standing united in support of our common goal, to restore our way of life. Restoring our way of life ur ultimately means getting back to the strong and prosperous nation that we were before this pandemic reached our shores. Restoring our way of life means defeating this virus and keeping americans healthy and safe, and we have already begun to accomplish this by modernizing our stockpile, investing in testing and telemedicine, and making Great Strides to develop a safe and effective vaccine. Restoring our way of life means improving our freedoms under this constitution, and we will always do this by defending the unborn, safeguarding our Second Amendment rights and protecting freedom of speech. And finally restoring our life means ensuring the safety and security of our streets and our communities. And we will achieve this by continuing to stand in support of our brave men and women in Law Enforcement. [ applause ] as a former Law Enforcement officer of 23 years i know that the vast and overwhelming majority of Police Officers are good people who serve with integrity and honor. It breaks my heart to see and hear about the senseless, unprovoked and brutal attacks on our police forces. The war on police must end. The terrorizing and elimination of Law Enforcement must stop. Law and order will be restored in our communities. We will not abolish or defund the police. Policing is a noble and honorable profession, and we will increase funding by 1. 7 billion for Better Police training, the implementation of Community Policing and purchasing equipment, 500,000 more body cameras. The investing in Community Policing is paramount. Community policing is a philosophy, which means you dont police your community, you police with your community. So far we have made Great Strides in restoring our way of life and i look forward to continuing these efforts in order to guide our nation down the road of recovery. Rebuild the greatest economy this nation has ever experienced and ensure every american faem can feel safe in their neighborhood again. Thank you. And now it is my pleasure to introduce the great congressman from texas, congressman kevin brady. Leader mccarthy, whip scalise, chairman liz cheney, thank you for spearheading the House Republicans commitment to america. Who would have imagined who would have imagined in just a matter of weeks covid19 could turn americas strongest economy in 90 years into its worst economy in 90 years. But americans are battling back, defying expectations. Together weve already gained back nearly half the jobs lost, but we cant stop now. Our republican commitment is to rebuild the greatest economy in modern times, the economy we delivered plus more. Our commitment is to get america working again, adding 10 million new good paying jobs and rebuilding our main street businesses. Well make the republican tax cuts permanent. Well make President Trumps tax cuts permanent because the proven way to rebuild local communities is to let families and businesses keep more of what they worked so hard to earn. [ applause ] well guarantee moms can keep their 2,000 child tax credit. Well make sure opportunity zones keep driving hope and investment into americas poorest neighborhoods. And mark our words republicans will end americas dependence on china for crucial medicines, medical supplies and technology. Well rebuild and anchor that manufacturing here in america with American Workers and american know how. But we wont stop there. Well build the United States into the number one nation on the planet for innovation. Imagine an Innovation Nation for Research Technology and advance manufacturing to create a healthy driving future for our grandchildren right here at home. And when it comes to trade well go beyond buy american. Well sell american in every corner of the globe with rebuilt trade agreements that are free and fair so American Workers and farmers can compete and win anywhere in the world including here at home. What a contrast, isnt it . While democrats want to defund, dismantle and destroy americas economy with more washington control over your paycheck and your business. This is our commitment to america, to restore, to renew and rebuild the greatest economy in the world. With that i am proud to introduce the newest member of congress from california, a former navy fighter pilot, representative mike garcia. Well, thank you, kevin, and welcome all. A very historic day we have here. Folks, we have every right as americans to dream tremendous and heroic dreams. Our ownership of this small segment within the arc of American History requires us to unite more than ever, to renew the splendor and greatness of our beautiful nation like never before. As americans we need to take pride in our nation and make our children proud and teach our kids our nations history with pride. We need to reinvigorate and renew the American Dream. I am that American Dream. Im a first generation american, a former navy fighter pilot, a businessman, a family man, and now im a citizen legislator in the halls of congress. I firmly believe [ applause ] i firmly believe that we as a nation are too capable and have too much potential to limit ourselves to simple hopes and small dreams. Within this renewal of National Pride we need to think big. We need to stands up. We need to wave the American Flag with honor and be courageous in the face of stupend s challenges. Now we need to double down on a commitment to god, the constitution, capitalism and competition, to reward hard work and be proud of our successes rather than being penalized for our achievements or being ashame offend our awards. We need to make bold moves. We need to strive for endeavors beyond the moon and we need to go to mars. Its time to renew our pride and our commitment to our veterans, military personnel and their families. Through programs like our commitment to america we expand Veterans Health care options, we allow them to choose their doctors, give them the gi benefits they deserve so if they want a job they will get a job. Its time to be Crystal Clear and completely unambiguous that we support Law Enforcement in this country. The police in our nation provide a security and on the world stage were once again becoming a super power without peers. We can never forget there are barriers in the form of russia and china. And now more than ever we need a first class military to ensure we remain the preeminent super power on this planet. And right now, rights now we need to give parents the choice to send their kids to the best schools, the safest schools and the right schools for their children our commitment is to invest heavily in high quality Stem Education programs to ensure that parents never lose school choice. As americans we need to remind ourselves and our children that were all americans and were all on one team. There is no affiliation, not one of color, race, creed, religion and even Political Party that should divide us, and one that should unite us more with our affiliation of being part of this beautiful country we call the United States of america. Ill finish with this. As i said our ownership of this small segment within the arc of American History does require us to unite now more than ever. And with that we will see the renewal of our gracious lands. I am the American Dream, but at my core im a patriot, and the responsibility and role i cherish most and that of being an american. Our commitment to America Today is at the right path forward is to restore, foorebuild our economy. Ladies and gentlemen, thank you very much and god bless the United States. Ill turn it over to leader mccarthy. This is our commitment to you, to every single american regardless of party, gender or color of skin. We
