The Contract set out the GOP\u2019s legislative plans ahead of the 1994 congressional election.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMcCarthy and his team are developing a Commitment to America. Having participated with Ronald Reagan\u2019s efforts in 1980, the 1994 Contract, and [former Speaker] John Boehner\u2019s successful 2010 campaign to retake the House, I can report that McCarthy\u2019s effort is the largest, most inclusive, and most systematic issue development effort I have ever seen,\u201d Gingrich wrote.<\/p>\n<p>The timing is interesting. Pollsters are saying their surveys show that Republicans could pick up more than a dozen seats in the 2022 mid-terms. Back when Gingrich, who served Georgia, was Speaker, Republicans picked up a net gain of 54 seats in the House and eight seats in the Senate. The GOP taking control of both chambers with a Democratic president, Bill Clinton, having served less than two years in office.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLeader McCarthy knows that this election, and the following two years as a majority, have a simple mission. In his words, it is \u2018to save America.\u2019 The planning I watched while I visited the party\u2019s annual policy retreat in Florida was being undertaken with this great challenge in mind,\u201d Gingrich wrote.\u00a0\u201cIf Boehner\u2019s winning slogan was \u2018where are the jobs?\u2019 the 2022 House Republican Party battle cry will be \u2018we can\u2019t afford it.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Inflation rose 7.9% in February as food and energy costs pushed prices to their highest level in more than 40 years, CNBC <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2022\/03\/10\/cpi-inflation-february-2022-.html\">reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEnergy also was at the forefront of ballooning prices, up 3.5% for February and accounting for about one-third of the headline gain. Shelter costs, which account for about one-third of the CPI weighting, accelerated another 0.5%, for a 12-month rise of 4.7%, the fastest annual increase since May 1991,\u201d the network reported.<\/p>\n<p>Said Gingrich:\u00a0\u201cThe impact of gas prices \u2013 and even more the impact of rising food prices \u2013 will dominate the entire political discussion this year. The Biden administration\u2019s policies, and the votes of House and Senate Democrats for those policies, have made it clearer to the American people that they can\u2019t afford the Democrats. Every Republican House leader emphasized the centrality of the price increases in food \u2013 even more than gasoline \u2013 and their impact on minorities who are hit much harder than woke professionals with good incomes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gingrich declared the 2022 mid-terms are \u201ca base-broadening election. It is a unique once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to reach people who have never been Republican but find themselves in pain every week trying to make ends meet. They simply can\u2019t afford the Democrats\u2019 insane policies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Joseph Curl has covered politics for 35 years, including 12 years as White House correspondent, and ran the Drudge Report from 2010 to 2015.
