House GOP leaders are readying an agenda that their members can all get behind if, or perhaps when, they retake the majority this fall. Translating that unity into floor votes will be the real challenge.
Plus, they likely need to anticipate input from former President Donald Trump as he continues to try to exert his influence over the party.
Some work has already begun to prepare those more recalcitrant Republicans for the “heavy lifting” of the majority, according to several GOP lawmakers who addressed those discussions on condition of anonymity. In private meetings, McCarthy and senior Republicans have stressed to newer members that they can’t tackle their agenda unless they can do the basics — including voting for a government spending deal.
For now, many Republicans described the singular focus of the retreat as figuring out which policy areas, including energy prices, health care, China, border security and reining in big tech companies, have enough agreement within the conference to actually turn into bill text. That mentality showed as GOP leaders brought in former Speaker Newt Gingrich to speak to the conference during its Florida sojourn. Lawmakers said his message was less about the tools of obstruction — which Gingrich famously deployed against then-President Bill Clinton — and more about the positive power of their agenda to “save America,” according to multiple people who listened.
