Newsletter: Getting Things Done For the American People

Statement

Date: April 24, 2015

Last week marked 100 days of the new Congress. While there's plenty more work to be done, we've already passed legislation to balance the budget, boost job creation, provide tax relief for hard working families, support our veterans, combat human trafficking, and so much more. In total, we've passed 62 bills, which more than doubled the 25 passed in the first 100 days of the 113th Congress and is twice as many as the 31 passed in the 112th Congress. Eight of those bills have been signed into law.
