S.C.R. No. 20 Summary

• Urges Congress to pass S. 1720 of the 112th Congress, the "Jobs Through Growth Act," a pro-growth proposal intended to create jobs and sustained long-term economic growth.

• Proposes a balanced budget amendment to the U.S. Constitution requiring fiscal responsibility and a simplified tax system to keep more money with consumers, small businesses, and job creators.

• Calls for repeal and replacement of the federal health care law to remove hundreds of billions of dollars in taxes, fees, fines, and higher health care costs mandated by that law.

• Requires federal agencies to assess the impact of new regulations on job creation and adopt the least burdensome regulatory option, and would codify Presidential Executive Order 13563 by allowing revocation of counterproductive regulations.

• Would provide the President with "fast-track" authority to negotiate trade agreements that eliminate foreign trade barriers and open new markets for American goods.
