The “Contract with America,” introduced by Newt Gingrich and House Republicans in 1994, was a legislative agenda aimed at reducing the size of government, promoting fiscal responsibility, and enhancing personal freedoms. It included proposals for welfare reform, tax cuts, and a balanced budget amendment, designed to appeal to conservative voters and secure a Republican majority in Congress. The program was a significant factor in the Republican Party’s sweeping victory in the 1994 midterm elections, marking the first time in 40 years they gained control of both houses of Congress.
