What is “Budget Reconciliation” and Why it Matters
The hottest phrase on Capitol Hill this year is “budget reconciliation.” Practically every conversation with a member of Congress, administration official, or third-party lobbyist involves mention of the coming reconciliation bill.

Long-Awaited Shutdown of the Department of Education
After 50 years of mismanagement, waste, and political propaganda, the Department of Education (ED) is on its way to shutting its doors.

Time to Protect Parents’ God-Given Right to Direct the Upbringing of Their Children
President Trump’s allusion to America’s “Golden Age” may mean new opportunities for innovation and growth, but it also means the chance to protect certain fundamental rights from ever being threatened again by a future administration.

Protect Kids from Explicit Apps
It is common knowledge, and unacceptable, that kids can access explicit material on Instagram, TikTok, and the other mainstream social media apps.
