PEARCE RELEASES STATEMENT FOLLOWING PRESIDENT TRUMP’S FIRST JOINT ADDRESS TO CONGRESS
Washington, DC (March 1, 2017) Congressman Steve Pearce today released the following statement after President Trump’s first Joint Address to Congress:
“President Trump gave a very powerful and motivating speech tonight, encouraging us all to work together to build the America we want for ourselves and for generations to come. When the President mentioned the rebuilding of our infrastructure – bringing innovation to our roads and bridges – he prompted a large bipartisan backing, showing we can find common ground for the better of our nation. We were also reminded tonight of the heavy cost of freedom and the sacrifices families make, even after soldiers are in action,” stated Rep. Pearce.
Rep. Pearce continued to state, “Overall, I was pleased to hear the President prioritize jobs and building up not just one person, but all Americans, and using that momentum to foster long-term economic growth. As President Trump mentioned, it is time we reform our tax code so that families and businesses in New Mexico are able to build our economy. For too long, we have seen how crippling regulations have resulted in fewer opportunities for families, small business owners, veterans, and many others in New Mexico. I am optimistic after tonight’s address that we can move past the contempt we have for one another and work together to find real solutions for the real families affected by the actions we take in Congress.”
