As the author of the New York Times #1 bestseller Understanding Trump, and as an advisor to President Trump throughout the 2016 campaign and the presidency, Speaker Gingrich has become known as the President’s chief explainer.

He led Congress to pass welfare reform, the first balanced budget in a generation, the first tax cut in 16 years, and measures to strengthen U.S. defense and intelligence capabilities – an action later lauded by the bipartisan 9/11 Commission.
After serving in Congress, in 2003, Speaker Gingrich continued his commitment to modernizing health care and launched the Center for Health Transformation, which focused on improving health care systems and providing better outcomes at lower cost.
