| Summary:

A program to build a lepton-collider Higgs factory, to precisely measure the
couplings of the Higgs boson to other particles, followed by a higher energy
run to establish the Higgs self-coupling and expand the new physics reach, is
widely recognized as a primary focus of modern particle physics. We propose a
strategy that focuses on a new technology and preliminary estimates suggest
that can lead to a compact, affordable machine. New technology investigations
will provide much needed enthusiasm for our field, resulting in trained
workforce. This cost-effective, compact design, with technologies useful for a
broad range of other accelerator applications, could be realized as a project
in the US. Its technology innovations, both in the accelerator and the
detector, will offer unique and exciting opportunities to young scientists.
Moreover, cost effective compact designs, broadly applicable to other fields of
research, are more likely to obtain financial support from our funding
agencies.
