Boehner lays out 'pillars' of speakership

Rep. John Boehner released a document Thursday morning that lays out five of his recent speeches as the pillars of his speakership, further pulling back the curtain on the future speaker's priorities as he readies to take the House.

The Ohio Republican's political arm Thursday morning released "Pillars of a New Majority," a compilation of speeches from the summer on topics ranging from abortion to national security.

The speeches "detail my vision of a principled new majority and the way in which it should serve our nation."

"President Obama must decide whether he will heed the will of the people and work with us to address their concerns, or continue on a path the people have rejected," the foreword to the 44-page packet reads.

The five speeches were delivered across the country. His speech entitled "culture of life" was delivered at the National Right to Life Committee's conference in Pittsburgh; he spoke about the economy in Cleveland, about congressional reform in Washington, national security in Milwaukee and creating jobs in his hometown of West Chester, Ohio.

The most notable speech was the economic address, given at the Cleveland City Club, where Boehner called for the resignation of Obama's economic advisers.

This is the second document in two days from Republican leadership detailing their plans for the majority. Eric Cantor, the Virginia Republican slated to become majority leader, released his plan for the majority, which includes specifics about eliminating earmarks, refiguring the congressional calendar and frequently offering rescission bills on the House floor.
