On 9/30/2022, Kamala Harris suggested hurricane and disaster relief should be based on race. Harris said resources and disaster relief in response to Hurricane Ian should be based on equity. “It is our lowest income communities and our communities of color that are most impacted by these extreme conditions and impacted by issues not of their own making,” Harris said referring to ‘extreme weather’ events. She continued, “And so we have to address this in a way that is about giving resources based on equity and understanding that we fight for equality but we also need to fight for equity understanding that not everybody starts out at the same place and if we want people to be in an equal place sometimes we have to take into account those disparities.”
Governor DeSantis’s rapid response team responded to Harris, tweeted, “FALSE. Under Governor Ron DeSantis, Floridians who need help are getting it. FEMA Individual Assistance is available to those impacted by Hurricane Ian regardless of race or background.”

Chair Stefanik: In Just 40 Days House Republicans Will Save America
On 9/29/2022, GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy, Whip Steve Scalise, Congresswoman Elise Stefanik joined House Republicans on the Capitol Steps to discuss the Commitment to America to create an economy that’s strong, a nation that’s safe, a future that’s built upon freedom, and a government that’s accountable.
GOPs pitched the Republican’s “Commitment to America” agenda. The agenda is reminiscent of the Republican’s plan of a similar name from 1994, “Contract to America,” which was spearheaded by former Republican Speaker of the House, Newt Gingrich.
Stefanik: across America, families are struggling—they are struggling to balance their budgets, seniors—including many from my district—are draining their savings, and the next generation is finding it impossible to afford the American dream. Joe Biden and House Democrats have no plan to address the skyrocketing inflation—highest in my lifetime. They have no plan to secure the border … The American people are smart—they know that single party Democrat rule has caused these crises.
Today, over 70% of America’s workers now say their wages have fallen behind Joe Biden’s skyrocketing inflation tax. And according to recent polling, voters trust Republicans over Democrats on issue after issue, whether it’s the economy, whether it’s the border, whether it’s inflation … It is clear the American people are looking for a new direction, and House Republicans have a plan. Our Commitment to America fights back against the Democrats’ radical agenda. It will rein in reckless spending to combat inflation. It will end Joe Biden’s open border policies and secure our southern border … We will unleash American energy dominance and defend our Constitutional freedoms.
Americans cannot afford to live under Democrats’ failed rule anymore, and help is on the way. In just 40 days, House Republicans will fire Lame Duck Speaker Nancy Pelosi once and for all, hold Joe Biden accountable for his failed leadership, and save America. In a new Republican majority, we will create an economy that’s strong, a nation that is safe, a future that’s built upon freedom, and a government that’s accountable.
Kentucky Republican Representative James Comer, who will likely chair the House Oversight Committee if Republicans win, said that Biden Admin’ accountability? zero! zero!
The House Republican Commitment to America has four broad pillars that guide and inform every policy proposal:
An economy that’s strong
A nation that’s safe
A future that’s built on freedom
A government that’s accountable
