Pence's 'Freedom Agenda' commits to complete the construction of a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, a centerpiece of former President Trump's 2016 presidential campaign.
The agenda also includes plans to"promote patriotic education" for U.S. students.
That comes amid ongoing controversy over what is taught in American schools and widespread Republican criticism of Critical Race Theory , including efforts to ban its teaching in schools, though CRT is generally only taught at college level. The agenda calls for reducing taxes and slashing federal spending, as well as balancing the federal budget within five years.
That section also calls for the World Trade Organization to undergo a"revamp" and suggests that social media companies"live under the same liability framework as traditional print and broadcast media companies."
