Madison Cawthorn Unveils New Republican Party Platform: the 'New Contract with America'

Rep. Madison Cawthorn, R-N.C., unveiled a new Republican Party platform designed after former House Speaker Newt Gingrich’s “Contract with America” that he hopes conservatives around the country will pledge to enact should the GOP retake Congress in the midterm elections.
Cawthorn, 26, revealed his “New Contract with America” legislation to Fox News Digital along with a video trailer that he’ll circulate on social media to rally support for what he calls the “America First” doctrine for the next generation of conservatives.
“I think this is a definitive roadmap … for my generation to reclaim our country,” Cawthorn told Fox News Digital in an exclusive interview. “… I believe that this is the plan the American people can really coalesce around because this is one that puts people first.”
The New Contract for America reads like a conservative wish list, including slashing federal funds, replacing the income tax, abolishing the Department of Education and stating that life begins at conception and therefore affording legal protections to fertilized eggs and fetuses.
