House Speaker Mike Johnson recently shared some big plans. He said Republicans are ready to hit the ground running in January. Their goal? To make things more affordable for everyone. Johnson talked about lowering healthcare costs and making daily life cheaper. He also mentioned turning some of President Trump's executive orders into permanent laws. There are about 200 of these orders, and around 150 could become laws with Congress' help.
Johnson also hinted at the impact of a major bill Trump signed earlier this year. He said the effects of this bill will start showing up soon. The Speaker mentioned that Trump is excited about these changes and they talk about it often.
Life has gotten more expensive lately. Gas prices hit $5. 016 on average in the summer of 2022. Egg prices went up by 147%. Inflation was at its highest in over 40 years. But things are looking up. Trump's policies have started to bring costs down. Inflation is cooling, and gas prices are dropping. In fact, Christmas Day gas prices are expected to be the lowest since 2020. This means big savings for families.
So, what's next? Republicans are focusing on affordability. They want to make sure Americans can live comfortably without breaking the bank. It's a tall order, but they're ready to take it on.
