House Republicans Are Dedicated to Common Sense Policies to Improve the Lives of You and Your Family.
We are committed to ensuring that the next generation does indeed have it better than the one before it.
Over the next two years, the House Majority will pursue an agenda based on a shared vision of creating the conditions for health, happiness and prosperity for more Americans and their families.
Eliminating arbitrary roadblocks that prevent workers from accessing job training immediately.
Giving working parents more flexibility in how they choose to be paid for overtime.
Prioritizing pediatric research to assist children with autism & other diseases.
There's no doubt our current health care system is too expensive and too complicated.
Whether it's college or the cost of daycare, making life work for more families means reducing economic insecurity.
When children graduate from high school, we must expand their choices and college should be a viable option.
Investment in education leads to innovation which leads to more opportunity and jobs for all.
One of our priorities this year will be to fix our education system for the most vulnerable.
"Eric Cantor is right about education reform - let the dollars follow the child, not the other way around. It's working in Louisiana."

Governor of Louisiana
"Cantor zeroed in on Americans’ need for expanded opportunities."

"An overture to working Americans, from middle-class soccer moms to first-generation immigrants."
Robert Costa

"[He] did a great job of laying out the agenda we need to follow, personalizing it and explaining how it is going to help the American people."
Lamar Smith
Chairman, House Committee on Science, Space & Technology
"It was just refreshing to hear someone talk about education."
Richard Hanna
Congressman (R-NY)
"Even though we might have different policy prescriptions than Leader Cantor, Democrats agree with the diagnosis that the shrinking middle class and the accessibility of the American dream are our most pressing challenges."
Charles Schumer
U.S. Senator (D-NY)
"I was very encouraged... I think he clearly opened a door for the House to move on meaningful legislation. I’m hoping that all of this sends a bright signal to all of our colleagues, that we should not concentrate so much on who we are against, but what we are for."
Elijah Cummings
Congressman (D-MD)
"Mr. Cantor, of Virginia, also struck a bipartisan tone..."
The Wall Street Journal
"I am really honored to be included in part of this speech, I was listening and then suddenly I realized he was talking about my story."
