Raul Helps Form Freedom Caucus

In a news release, Congressman Raul Labrador reports that he has helped form the House Freedom Caucus from members of the House Republican Conference. The goal of the caucus is to "advance an agenda of limited, constitutional government in Congress." The caucus' founding members are Labrador, Rep. Scott Garrett, Rep. Jim Jordan, Rep. John Fleming, Rep. Matt Salmon, Rep. Justin Amash,  Rep. Mick Mulvaney, Rep. Ron DeSantis and Rep. Mark Meadows. The HFC has adopted the following mission statement:

The House Freedom Caucus gives a voice to countless Americans who feel that Washington does not represent them. We support open, accountable and limited government, the Constitution and the rule of law, and policies that promote the liberty, safety and prosperity of all Americans.

Question: What do you think of this action by Congressman Raul Labrador?
