Now is the time to pass the MERIT Act
October 16, 2018 Washington, DC Conservatives have long advocated for reform of our civil service to address a system plagued with inefficiency and abuse.

Confirm Judge Kavanaugh
September 27, 2018 Washington, DC There are few issues that unite conservatives more than filling judicial vacancies, especially Supreme Court vacancies, with highly qualified judges who have a demonstrated record of honoring the Constitution, fairly applying the law and not using the bench to legislate or impose a political agenda. Senate Republicans must confirm Judge […]
Confirm Judge Kavanaugh Before October 1
September 20, 2018 Washington, DC As the Senate Judiciary Committee wrestles with the 11th hour character assassination of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, we strongly urge Republican senators to keep the confirmation process on track and proceed with it in a timely manner.

Republican Majority must break with past: Elect New Leadership That Knows How to Win
September 11, 2018 Washington, DC As the House of Representatives considers candidates for new leadership, we urge Members of Congress to select a Speaker who is committed to fighting for the conservative policy promises included in the Republican platform and who will upend business as usual in Washington.

Congress Should Enact DHS and DOD Funding Bills Before the Election
August 28, 2018 Washington, DC Signatures updated: 8/29/18 For too long, Republican spending bills have missed key opportunities to implement President Trump’s agenda on policy, but also on spending.

Conservatives Remind Congress – Repeal Obamacare Now
June 20, 2018 Washington, DC Signatures updated: 6/28/18 For nearly a decade, Democrats in Congress have successfully blocked every effort by Republicans to keep the promise they made to voters of fully repealing Obamacare.

Senators – Fund the Troops First
June 11, 2018 Washington, DC Signatures updated: 6/12/18 Conservatives want the Senate to work fulltime and overtime starting now until their work is done.
