GOP 'Pledge to America' to call for U.S. spending freeze

After enduring "party-of-no" insults from President Obama and Democrats for many months, House Republicans are offering a collection of conservative ideas, including freezing government spending and replacing the president's sweeping health-care legislation with a scaled-back version allowing for the purchase of health plans across state lines.

Officially described as a governing agenda, the "Pledge" unofficially is meant to give Republican candidates forward-looking ideas to choose from in their fall campaigns for elections barely five weeks away.
