    The Architects of Supply-Side Economics Have Praised Gingrichs

    Pro-Growth Commitment for DecadesNewt Gingrich understands that the only real way to cure unemployment and inflation is trough economic

    expansion and real growth in the private sector. What's hurting us is that the government is taxing awayincentives of workers, savers and investors.

    Newt Gingrich understands what is wrong and what we must do to make America right again. He

    understands that lower taxes and private enterprise jobs are the answer -- not higher taxes and more

    government jobs. Jack Kemp, letter on behalf of Gingrich 1978 campaign for Congress, June 23, 1978

    I write to congratulate you, [Mr. Gingrich], on the stand you have taken about the so-called budget

    agreement. We need lower taxes, not higher taxes; less government spending, not more government

    spending presented as less by virtue of treating prices paid by recipients as if that was simply a reduction in

    expenditures. Milton Friedman, letter to Gingrich regarding his leadership in standing against the

    1990 tax hike, October 4, 1990

    We have House Minority Whip Newt Gingrich to thank for pulling the nation back from the brink of

    disasterThe best news for us is the emergence of Newt Gingrich as a world-class leaderGingrich has

    established himself so thoroughly as a growth force to be reckoned with that it is now hard to imagine a

    prolonged U.S. economic decline. Jude Wanniski, newsletter regarding Gingrichs stand against the

    1990 tax hike, October 9, 1990

    Gingrich has Fought Tirelessly for Pro-Growth Policies Since the 1981 Reagan

    Tax Cuts, which brought 25 Years of Jobs, Growth, and Prosperity

    Newt Gingrich says working Americans deserve a raise. Newt says we can fight inflation and fight

    unemployment. Newt says we need to cut wasteful government spending and cut taxes -- he has specificproposals to do both. -- Gingrich 1980 campaign brochure discussing Newts steadfast support for

    what would become the historic 1981 Reagan tax cut.

    "If you work hard and make money, you have more right to that money than does the government. This is a

    radical idea in Washington. Some liberals actually think they've loaned you the money, and you ought to be

    grateful to them because they let you take some of it home. They think it's their job to take as much of your

    money as possible and spend it for you because you're too stupid to spend it for yourself. 'It's your money

    and you ought to keep it,'. . . that is what the Reagan administration is saying." Speech to 1981 Carroll

    County Republican Convention, discussing the upcoming fight over the Kemp-Roth tax cut bill.
