FTA: Walker’s speech today will include arguments familiar to anyone who has watched him over the past six months – or the past six years. He will call for a reassessment of the role of government in American life – a dramatic reduction of the scope of government and a redistribution of its power, from Washington to the states and localities. He will emphasize reform and budget discipline, as well as the need for growth. And, speaking without a teleprompter, Walker will develop a theme that he believes sets him apart from the ever-growing Republican field, portraying himself as “a fighter who can win” and implement “commonsense conservative reforms.”

Great job in Wisconsin.
Regretfully, he supports amnesty.
What specifically would he do at the federal level that would expand on his work his work in Wisconsin? And which of those reforms would be his highest priority if elected?It turns out there are many. “Repealing Obamacare right away.” A “major pullback” and “moratorium…on the out-of-control federal regulations.” Laying out “a plan for true tax reform.” “Approving the Keystone Pipeline on the first day.” “Lifting the sequester on defense spending.” Sending Medicaid dollars to the states and shifting responsibility for many government functions out of Washington: “transportation, workforce development, heck, even education.” Entitlement reform would be addressed “literally in the first 100 days.”
