Most Americans Set New Year’s Resolutions, and So Do Lawmakers
Like millions of people across the United States, members of Congress are setting their own New Year’s resolutions, ranging from professional to personal goals. House Foreign Affairs Chairman Michael McCaul, R-Texas, who is stepping down from the top spot on the committee after being term-limited, said his resolution is to use his new role as chairman emeritus to be a strong voice on foreign policy and national security issues. On a more individual level, McCaul also set a resolution for daily exercise and spending time on the things most important in life, like family.
Other lawmakers shared their resolutions with Fox News Digital. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., said her resolution involves cleaner eating, avoiding seed oils. Rep. Pat Fallon, R-Texas, shared a broader goal for unity in 2025 involving his fellow House Republicans. House Freedom Caucus Chairman Andy Harris, R-Md., said his resolution is to help Make America Healthy Again by steering nutrition policy toward promoting healthy food choices.
On the Senate side, lawmakers shared resolutions to forward the GOP agenda. Sen. Katie Britt, R-Ala., said her 2025 resolutions include securing the southern border, returning to regular order to cut wasteful spending, and passing pro-family tax reform. Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, said his resolution is to become less tolerant of climate alarmism and hasten the demise of the administrative state. Sen. Steve Daines, R-Mont., revealed his resolution is to confirm all of Trump’s nominees and secure the borders.
