WASHINGTON, Dec. 23, 2010 /Standard Newswire/ -- Speaker-designate John Boehner (R-OH) praised the reforms outlined in the proposed House GOP rules package put forth yesterday to cut spending, increase transparency, and improve accountability in the 112th Congress, consistent with the GOP's Pledge to America:
- "The rules package we have offered represents a first step towards delivering on the pledge Republicans made to address Americans' top priorities: cutting spending, creating jobs, and reforming the way Washington works. These reforms will truly change the way Congress operates -- increasing openness, deliberation and efficiency. Republicans built our Pledge to America by listening to the American people, and these proposed reforms will help restore the institution, restore it to being the People's House. It's not about us; it's about them. The American people want a smaller, less costly, more accountable government, and I look forward to working with my colleagues to institute these changes, fix this broken institution, and deliver on our pledge to them."
"I would also like to thank GOP Majority Transition Team Chairman Greg Walden (R-OR) and Rep. Rob Bishop (R-UT) for leading the effort to develop these reforms, and for all of the invaluable contributions made by the transition team."
