The Republican Party is gearing up to win a majority in Congress in this fall’s elections. Recent polling data shows a greater winning chance for Republicans. Republican control of one or more chambers of Congress could bring major policy changes.
The country’s defense has always been a priority for the Republican party. In December, Republican efforts came to fruition when they managed to give a $25 billion boost to the defense policy bill. So Republican control of Congress could bode well for the defense industry. It might also benefit the publishing industry because people can be expected to tune in to political drama that the Beltway power swap would spell.
