Public Policy Is Moving Too Slowly to Protect Children from AI

Technology advances exponentially while public policy advances … glacially. While Congress continues to debate how best to regulate an industry that has been allowed to run amok for nearly two decades, technologists continue to push ahead with increasingly powerful AI systems, even as the executives and engineers who built them worry they “could kill us […]

Who Gets to Define a Mother in Pennsylvania?

“And Adam called his wife’s name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.” — Genesis 3:20 Apparently, under the Shapiro administration, even the word “woman” is becoming too controversial for Pennsylvania’s health regulations. The Department of Health is proposing changes that would replace terms such as “pregnant woman” and “mother of a newborn” […]

The DAR, Womanhood, and the Cost of Redefining Truth

As a newer member of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR), as well as a college student, Young Women for America (YWA) Ambassador, and most importantly, a Christian conservative who loves God and country, I feel uniquely positioned to address an issue that reaches far beyond one organization. In June, the DAR hosted its […]

Who Has Authority Over Your Child in Pennsylvania?

“Government’s first duty is to protect the people, not run their lives.” — Ronald Reagan The lessons of COVID should not be forgotten. We saw firsthand what can happen when government health authorities are given broad powers over our schools, our families, and our daily lives. Now, the Shapiro administration is proposing more than 500 […]

Federal Action Is Here. Pennsylvania: Now It’s Your Turn

“Let us not be weary in well doing.” — Galatians 6:9 Last week, a major step was taken to protect children and taxpayers.

Does Disney Still Deserve the Benefit of the Doubt?

Nearly every child born in America in the second half of the 20th century (and beyond) was reared on Disney. The Wonderful World of Disney occupied a prime slot on the weekly television schedule; Disneyland and Disney World were aspirational vacation destinations, and Disney movies were worth the cost of admission for the entire family […]

Babies by any means? AOC and the Fertility Crisis 

In early August, Rep. Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez (AOC, D-New York 14th), posted a video of herself beginning the process of freezing her eggs. Soon enough, a social media firestorm around reproductive technology, marriage, and motherhood erupted online—AOC’s leftist followers praised her for “taking control of her own life,” but the political right split on the issue. Some criticized AOC for perpetuating the narrative that women should delay motherhood to pursue careers, and others defended AOC for desiring to have children in […]

Not in my school: CWA’s Long History of Opposing School-Based Health Centers

A 1986 edition of Concerned Women for America’s (CWA) monthly magazine, Family Voice, listed the following prayer request in its prayer bulletin: That people across the country would see the danger of school-based “health” clinics and know how to take effective action against them. Forty years later, CWA is still committed to fighting School-Based Health […]

Big Marijuana’s Long Shadow of Destruction

On July 15, 2026, the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) and Department of Justice (DOJ) officially wrapped up a historic set of hearings on rescheduling marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule III. The dramatic change would reclassify the drug as now having an accepted medical use and a low risk of abuse. However, marijuana itself has never been accepted for medical use and is overwhelmingly abused […]

“Under-Regulated and Unaccountable”: The State of America’s IVF Industry

When I sat down with Emma Waters, Senior Policy Analyst at the Heritage Foundation’s Center for Technology and the Human Person, I expected to learn about policy. What I didn’t expect was her jarringly accurate description of the state of American fertility law. “The best way to categorize the governance of the fertility industry and of IVF in particular,” she told me, “is that it’s under-regulated […]

The War on Truth, Smithsonian Edition

When a people forgets where they came from, they forget who they are. But America’s largest institution charged with preserving and sharing our history has been captured by an anti-American ideology that is lying to busloads of school children and international tourists for the sake of a corrosive political agenda. Now that it’s all finally […]

The Personhood Debate Expands

Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping the way Americans live and work. Businesses, schools, governments, and consumers are racing to identify ways AI can improve their current systems and increase efficiency. AI is the name of the game. However, developers have reached beyond simple efficiency, and many programs are created to mimic human personality, simulate relationships, […]

Blind Squirrels and Broken Clocks

Scandal-plagued Fairfax County (Virginia) schools finally got something right (kind of). At its July 16 meeting, the Fairfax County school board voted to restrict generative AI for elementary students, prohibit tablets and laptops in pre-K and kindergarten classes, limit personal devices during instructional time, and launch a pilot program to implement a “whitelist”-style firewall (rather […]
