Here Is What Donald Trump Wants To Do In His First 100 Days

At the end of October, Donald Trump spoke in Gettysburg, Pa., and
released a plan for his first 100 days in office.

The plan (below) outlines three main areas of focus: cleaning up
Washington, including by imposing term limits on Congress; protecting
American workers; and restoring rule of law. He also laid out his plan
for working with Congress to introduce 10 pieces of legislation that
would repeal Obamacare, fund the construction of a wall at the Southern
border (with a provision that Mexico would reimburse the U.S.),
encourage infrastructure investment, rebuild military bases, promote
school choice and more.

On Wednesday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell mostly made nice
with Trump but also shot down or expressed little enthusiasm in some of
his plans. On Trump's proposal to impose term limits on Congress,
McConnell said, "It will not be on the agenda in the Senate." McConnell
has been a long-standing opponent of term limits, as NPR's Susan Davis
reports. "I would say we have term limits now — they're called elections."

McConnell also threw some cold water on Trump's infrastructure plans,
calling it not a top priority.

McConnell did say repealing Obamacare is a "pretty high item on our
agenda" along with comprehensive tax reform and achieving border
security "in whatever way is the most effective." But he also declined
to discuss the Senate's immigration agenda further.

"We look forward to working with him," McConnell said. "I think most of
the things that he's likely to advocate we're going to be
enthusiastically for."

Below is the 100-day plan Trump's campaign released in October, called
"Donald Trump's Contract With The American Voter."

What follows is my 100-day action plan to Make America Great Again. It
is a contract between myself and the American voter — and begins with
restoring honesty, accountability and change to Washington

Therefore, on the first day of my term of office, my administration will
immediately pursue the following six measures to clean up the corruption
and special interest collusion in Washington, DC:

* FIRST, propose a Constitutional Amendment to impose term limits on all
members of Congress;

* SECOND, a hiring freeze on all federal employees to reduce federal
workforce through attrition (exempting military, public safety, and
public health);

* THIRD, a requirement that for every new federal regulation, two
existing regulations must be eliminated;

* FOURTH, a 5 year-ban on White House and Congressional officials
becoming lobbyists after they leave government service;

* FIFTH, a lifetime ban on White House officials lobbying on behalf of a
foreign government;

* SIXTH, a complete ban on foreign lobbyists raising money for American
elections.

On the same day, I will begin taking the following 7 actions to protect
American workers:

* FIRST, I will announce my intention to renegotiate NAFTA or withdraw
from the deal under Article 2205

* SECOND, I will announce our withdrawal from the Trans-Pacific Partnership

* THIRD, I will direct my Secretary of the Treasury to label China a
currency manipulator

* FOURTH, I will direct the Secretary of Commerce and U.S. Trade
Representative to identify all foreign trading abuses that unfairly
impact American workers and direct them to use every tool under American
and international law to end those abuses immediately

* FIFTH, I will lift the restrictions on the production of $50 trillion
dollars' worth of job-producing American energy reserves, including
shale, oil, natural gas and clean coal.

* SIXTH, lift the Obama-Clinton roadblocks and allow vital energy
infrastructure projects, like the Keystone Pipeline, to move forward

* SEVENTH, cancel billions in payments to U.N. climate change programs
and use the money to fix America's water and environmental infrastructure

Additionally, on the first day, I will take the following five actions
to restore security and the constitutional rule of law:

* FIRST, cancel every unconstitutional executive action, memorandum and
order issued by President Obama

* SECOND, begin the process of selecting a replacement for Justice
Scalia from one of the 20 judges on my list, who will uphold and defend
the Constitution of the United States

* THIRD, cancel all federal funding to Sanctuary Cities

* FOURTH, begin removing the more than 2 million criminal illegal
immigrants from the country and cancel visas to foreign countries that
won't take them back

* FIFTH, suspend immigration from terror-prone regions where vetting
cannot safely occur. All vetting of people coming into our country will
be considered extreme vetting.

Next, I will work with Congress to introduce the following broader
legislative measures and fight for their passage within the first 100
days of my Administration:

Middle Class Tax Relief And Simplification Act. An economic plan
designed to grow the economy 4% per year and create at least 25 million
new jobs through massive tax reduction and simplification, in
combination with trade reform, regulatory relief, and lifting the
restrictions on American energy. The largest tax reductions are for the
middle class. A middle-class family with 2 children will get a 35% tax
cut. The current number of brackets will be reduced from 7 to 3, and tax
forms will likewise be greatly simplified. The business rate will be
lowered from 35 to 15 percent, and the trillions of dollars of American
corporate money overseas can now be brought back at a 10 percent rate.
End The Offshoring Act. Establishes tariffs to discourage companies
from laying off their workers in order to relocate in other countries
and ship their products back to the U.S. tax-free.
American Energy & Infrastructure Act. Leverages public-private
partnerships, and private investments through tax incentives, to spur $1
trillion in infrastructure investment over 10 years. It is revenue neutral.
School Choice And Education Opportunity Act. Redirects education
dollars to give parents the right to send their kid to the public,
private, charter, magnet, religious or home school of their choice. Ends
common core, brings education supervision to local communities. It
expands vocational and technical education, and make 2 and 4-year
college more affordable.
Repeal and Replace Obamacare Act. Fully repeals Obamacare and
replaces it with Health Savings Accounts, the ability to purchase health
insurance across state lines, and lets states manage Medicaid funds.
Reforms will also include cutting the red tape at the FDA: there are
over 4,000 drugs awaiting approval, and we especially want to speed the
approval of life-saving medications.
Affordable Childcare and Eldercare Act. Allows Americans to deduct
childcare and elder care from their taxes, incentivizes employers to
provide on-side childcare services, and creates tax-free Dependent Care
Savings Accounts for both young and elderly dependents, with matching
contributions for low-income families.
End Illegal Immigration Act Fully-funds the construction of a wall
on our southern border with the full understanding that the country
Mexico will be reimbursing the United States for the full cost of such
wall; establishes a 2-year mandatory minimum federal prison sentence for
illegally re-entering the U.S. after a previous deportation, and a
5-year mandatory minimum for illegally re-entering for those with felony
convictions, multiple misdemeanor convictions or two or more prior
deportations; also reforms visa rules to enhance penalties for
overstaying and to ensure open jobs are offered to American workers first.
Restoring Community Safety Act. Reduces surging crime, drugs and
violence by creating a Task Force On Violent Crime and increasing
funding for programs that train and assist local police; increases
resources for federal law enforcement agencies and federal prosecutors
to dismantle criminal gangs and put violent offenders behind bars.
Restoring National Security Act. Rebuilds our military by
eliminating the defense sequester and expanding military investment;
provides Veterans with the ability to receive public VA treatment or
attend the private doctor of their choice; protects our vital
infrastructure from cyber-attack; establishes new screening procedures
for immigration to ensure those who are admitted to our country support
our people and our values
Clean up Corruption in Washington Act. Enacts new ethics reforms to
Drain the Swamp and reduce the corrupting influence of special interests
on our politics.

On November 8th, Americans will be voting for this 100-day plan to
restore prosperity to our economy, security to our communities, and
honesty to our government.

This is my pledge to you.

And if we follow these steps, we will once more have a government of, by
and for the people.
