    The US Republican Party is currently focused on several key initiatives and events. With President-elect Donald Trump set to take office, the Republican National Committee (RNC) is gearing up for the 2025 and 2026 election cycles. RNC Chair Mike Whatley has outlined the party's mission to ensure that Trump voters become long-term Republican voters, emphasizing the need to cement the gains made in the 2024 elections. This involves continuing to engage low-propensity voters, protecting the ballot, and reaching out to diverse communities, including African American, Asian American, Hispanic, young, and women voters.

    On the legislative front, Republican congressional leaders are prioritizing the extension of expiring tax cuts from the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), which are set to expire at the end of 2025. This effort includes extending individual income tax rate cuts and the enhanced child tax credit. The House Ways and Means Committee has initiated the budget reconciliation process to advance this legislation, which will require offsetting any additional costs with revenue-raising provisions.

    Additionally, President Trump has recently issued an executive order imposing significant tariffs on imports from Mexico, Canada, and China, with a 25% tariff on imports from Mexico and Canada, and a 10% tariff on imports from China. These tariff proposals are part of a broader set of economic and trade policies that align with the Republican Party's stance on trade protectionism and economic nationalism.

    The 2024 Republican Party Platform, which was adopted during the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, highlights several key policy positions. These include securing the border, deporting illegal aliens, and reversing Democratic open-border policies. The platform also emphasizes restoring peace through strength, reducing geopolitical risks, and lowering commodity prices. Strict vetting of immigrants and stopping sanctuary cities are also key commitments.

    Looking ahead to the 2026 midterms, the RNC is focused on defending its majorities in the House and Senate, which will be crucial for implementing the party's agenda over the next four years. The party is planning to register voters, communicate effectively with their base, and prepare for what is expected to be an intense midterm election cycle.
