Should Trump Leave Twitter?

In the past few weeks, one of our favorite members of Congress and a constant FreedomFighter Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.) has been quite active, to say the least. From mic-drop-worthy op-eds and strongly-worded letters to resolutions and bills that would do leagues of good for freedom in our country, his response to the coronavirus pandemic, and the problems that the government has created as a result of it, has been spot-on. Below are some highlights.

FreedomWorks is proud to roll out its 2020 policy platform. Too often, lawmakers have been unwilling or unable to implement bold solutions to the problems facing everyday Americans.

It is our sincere hope that President Trump and lawmakers across the country use the attached platform as a model to guide their policymaking agenda for the next four years and beyond.
