Healthy living, party unity, and ‘time to smell the roses’: Congressional Republicans’ New Year’s resolutions

Healthy living, party unity, and ‘time to smell the roses’: Congressional Republicans’ New Year’s resolutions

Most Americans look at the beginning of a new year as a fresh start, and an opportunity to set goals to better themselves over the next 12 months – and members of Congress are no exception.

Like millions of people across the U.S., lawmakers are setting their own New Year’s resolutions, ranging from the professional to the very personal. 

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 was 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 told Fox News Digital he also set a New Year’s resolution for ‘daily exercise and spending my time on the things most important in life, like family. And taking time to smell the roses.’

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., said her New Year’s resolution involved cleaner eating.

‘My New Year’s resolution is to not eat anything with seed oils. It’s going to be nearly impossible because they stick them in everything,’ she said.

Meanwhile, Rep. Pat Fallon, R-Texas, shared a broader goal for unity in 2025 involving his fellow House Republicans – after a 118th Congress marked by historic levels of discord and infighting.

‘I always said that the Republican conference is a big family,’ Fallon said. ‘We may be dysfunctional at times, but we’re still a family, and my New Year’s resolution is that we can all sing from the same sheet music enough times to make a difference for the American people.’

House Freedom Caucus Chairman Andy Harris, R-Md., said, ‘My New Year’s resolution is to help Make America Healthy Again by steering our nutrition policy toward promoting healthy food choices, starting with changes to the food stamp (SNAP) program.’

On the Senate side, lawmakers shared resolutions to forward the GOP agenda.

‘With a new year, new Congress, and new President, I know we can get America back on track and usher in a new golden era. My 2025 resolutions are to help secure our southern border to make our families and communities safer; return to regular order to cut wasteful spending and ensure Congress is a responsible steward of taxpayer dollars; and pass pro-family tax reform that grows opportunity and prosperity across our nation,’ Sen. Katie Britt, R-Ala., told Fox News Digital.

Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, said, ‘My New Year’s resolution is to become less tolerant of climate alarmism and hasten the demise of the administrative state.’ The Republican will chair the energy committee in the new Congress. 

Sen. Steve Daines, R-Mont., revealed his resolution is to ‘confirm all of Trump’s nominees and secure our borders.’
