		</div><p>Hard-right House Republicans were discussing forming an America First Caucus, which one document described as championing “Anglo-Saxon political traditions” and warning that mass immigration was putting the “unique identity” of the US at risk.</p>
<p>The proposal was first reported by Punchbowl News, a news outlet covering Capitol Hill.</p>
<p>The document was being circulated as the Republicans struggle to determine a clear direction as it prepares to try winning back control of the House and Senate in the 2022 elections.</p>
<p>Among the party’s divisions are how closely to tack behind Donald Trump, and the caucus’ seven-page policy platform clearly embraces the former president’s world view.</p>
<p>“The America First Caucus (AFC) exists to promote Congressional policies that are to the long-term benefit of the American nation,” it begins.</p>
<p>It says the group aims to “follow in President Trump’s footsteps, and potentially step on some toes and sacrifice sacred cows for the good of the American nation”.</p>
<p>The group calls for limiting legal immigration “to those that can contribute not only economically, but have demonstrated respect for this nation’s culture and rule of law”.</p>
<p>It voices support for infrastructure “that reflects the architectural, engineering and aesthetic value that befits the progeny of European architecture”.</p>
<p>In a striking criticism, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy issued a tweet that an aide confirmed was aimed at the group.</p>
<p>“America is built on the idea that we are all created equal and success is earned through honest, hard work.</p>
<p>“It isn’t built on identity, race, or religion,” Mr McCarthy wrote.“The Republican Party is the party of Lincoln &; the party of more opportunity for all Americans—not nativist dog whistles.”</p>
<p>Liz Cheney, who represents Wyoming, tweeted: “We teach our children the values of tolerance, decency and moral courage.</p>
<p>“Racism, nativism, and anti-Semitism are evil.</p>
<p>“History teaches we all have an obligation to confront &; reject such malicious hate.”</p>
<p>Ms Cheney voted to impeach Mr Trump in January and has been under fire from some of the party’s most far-right politicians and the former president.</p>
