One of the aims of the Contract with America was to reduce poverty and expand economic opportunities.

The Contract with America was a document drafted by the Republican Party in occasion of the 1994 Congress elections. This contract included promises of actions that the Republican majority in the Chamber would implement within the first hundred days of the legislature if they were elected, relying on the fears of the average citizen, such as poverty and unemployment, among others. The contract seems to have worked, as the Republicans actually earned the majority of seats in the House of Representatives, but the commitments have not been fully respected.
