被問到被國民黨立委王鴻薇檢舉違反「選罷法」,卓揆說,依法辦理,如果法律該怎麼做就怎麼做,但是他不是在公開展示,是跟個別委員要跟他照相,我們都會接受,而且他是手機的封面,「你們也可以做,我希望更多人來做」。
對於總統賴清德8月17日宣布明年普發現金1萬元,國民黨立法院黨團主張加碼至2萬元。卓揆則強調,一切照程序來,但是也要考慮到國家的財政紀律,也不能排擠到今年度追加預算、明年度總預算。希望在審查總預算案過程中,全民都支持不舉債原則,亦即政府不舉債,大家領1萬元更心安理得。

As this year's G20 chair, the US issued a statement a day after a Milwaukee trade meeting where only Mexico and Argentina supported a US-led call to eliminate forced labour from supply chains.

The Hsinchu District Prosecutor's Office has been investigating the case of former mayor Lin Zhijian's baseball stadium turnkey project for nearly four years.

He also pointed out that the baseball stadium was used as a political cash machine, which led to the termination of the professional baseball team. The Gaohongan City Government responded by stating that criminal liability and civil liability are separated and that it will seek compensation from the manufacturer in accordance with contract procedures. The baseball field improvement project has been completed and the first friendly match was held.
