CWALAC Holds Capitol Hill Briefing to Support Moms
Abortion advocates would have the country believe that pro-lifers only care about the baby while it’s in the womb and have no regard for the mother or the child after it’s born. But the reality is that the pro-life community has created countless resources specifically to care for mom and baby throughout every step of […]
Talarico and the Spiritual Warfare in American Politics
“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” Ephesians 6:12 (NIV) James Talarico, an aspiring “pastor” who supports abortion, open borders, and LGBTQ+ ideology, is running as the Democrat candidate to be the next U.S. Senator from Texas. In November, Talarico will face Ken Paxton (R) in this highly anticipated race. This election is not just the typical battle for who will serve a […]
Weed Expansion Benefits No One
Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger just vetoed a bill that would have increased access to marijuana. If even she, one of the most liberal governors in the nation, sees the danger of expanding cannabis access, this development should be a warning to every state in the nation and the federal government, too. Current Virginia state law […]

Democrats Propose Bill to Repeal School Choice Program
Democrats say they’re pro-choice. Unless, of course, that means families getting to choose to send their children to a non-public school. This week in Congress, a number of Democrats made it clear that in that case, they are very much against choice. Last summer, Congress passed the first-ever federal school choice program as part of […]
The Status of the Effort to Defund Planned Parenthood in Congress
Last year, Congress delivered its most significant pro-life victory ever by ending federal funding to big abortion providers for a year. But on July 4th, America’s 250th birthday, that funding will be restored unless Congress acts. What is the current status of that effort? For decades, Planned Parenthood and other big abortion providers have leeched […]
Will Taxpayers Foot the Bill for Abortion and ‘Gender-Affirming Care’ in 2026?
On July 4, American taxpayers are set to resume funding one of the nation’s largest providers of so-called gender-affirming care for children, which also just happens to be the nation’s largest provider of abortion. If that’s not a killjoy for America’s 250th birthday, I don’t know what is. Last year, President Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act defunded Big Abortion providers like […]
AOC is Right?
Even a broken clock is right twice a day, a truth that was proven yet again when Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-New York 14th), colloquially known as AOC), posted on X that gambling is bad for society. It’s hard to imagine I’m typing this, but AOC is entirely correct. The now-viral social media post was a […]
Hostile Foreign Nations Are Influencing American Universities; Greater Transparency Is Needed
American universities are supposed to be the exemplar of what makes this country great. And yet malign foreign influence has been eroding the integrity of American higher education for years. Rather than turning out scholars and patriots, universities have become bastions of anti-American sentiment, woke academia, and treasure troves of sensitive information for nations that […]
Democrats Elevate LGBTQ Flag While Refusing to Fund the Government
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has been shut down for almost two weeks after Congress failed to pass a funding bill before the February 13 deadline.

No, Requiring Voter ID is Not Sexist
There are two similar bills causing the controversy du jour on Capitol Hill – the SAVE Act and the SAVE America Act. Both would better protect the integrity of elections in the U.S. by ensuring voter ID and requiring proof of citizenship. But opponents are arguing that, among other claims, these bills are sexist and […]
Markup Recap: The Protection of Women in Olympic and Amateur Sports Act
On February 3, 2026, the House of Representatives Committee on the Judiciary hosted a markup for H.R. 1028, the Protection of Women in Olympic and Amateur Sports Act. The bill, championed by Rep.

Congress Passed School Choice; Now It’s Up to the States to Implement It
For many families, finances are the primary obstacle to escaping the public school system. Private schools are expensive; homeschooling usually requires one parent to stay at home part or full-time. Even extracurricular activities or tutoring require some kind of sacrifice. The result is that the number of families who desire school choice far outstrip those […]
Senate Hearing on Chemical Abortion Turns Into Basic Biology Lesson
It is impossible to care about women and their health if you cannot define what a woman is. That simple truth was put on full display at a recent Senate hearing aimed at exposing the dangers of chemical abortion. As the pro-life witnesses shared the threats that the unregulated chemical abortion pill poses to women’s […]
The Healthcare Fight and the Hyde Amendment
Last week, a months-long fight over healthcare policy climaxed in the House of Representatives. Seventeen members from Speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-Louisiana 4th) side of the aisle voted with Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-New York 8th) to advance his proposed Obamacare extension, breaking with their party and abandoning a bare-minimum commitment to the Hyde Amendment. The […]
What’s in Store for Congress in 2026
Concerned Women for America Legislative Action Committee (CWALAC) celebrated huge wins that came out of Congress in 2025.

HHS Ends Taxpayer Funding of Sex-Rejecting Procedures
For far too long, the American medical industry has been captured by an ideology that says sex is interchangeable, that the temporary whims of a child should be affirmed by permanent surgical mutilation. But at last, the Health and Human Services Department (HHS) announced that they are pulling the plug on these barbaric practices. For […]
Boy Wins Girl’s Irish Dance Competition for the Third Year in a Row

Congress Bans Dangerous Hemp-Based Products
While America cheered that Congress finally funded the government, the funding bill included a less celebrated but far more significant victory – a ban on dangerous intoxicating hemp products. For years, seemingly harmless hemp products have been filling the shelves of gas stations, vape shops, and liquor stores. THC seltzer waters and soda, Hemp-laced gummies […]
Department of Education Begins Its “Final Mission”
When Linda McMahon was named Secretary of Education, her stated purpose was to work herself out of a job by shutting down the Department of Education (ED).
