RUN2WIN AN INCREDIBLE SUCCESS Just a week has passed since the Run2Win Conference, and I'm still amazed by the incredible two-day gathering. Hosted by our sister organization, Frontline Policy Council, this event wasn't just a conference; it was a movement of minds and hearts aligned towards a transformative goal.
Many of you might have seen me leading worship each morning or running around with a headset. Between my duties on stage and behind the scenes, one of my greatest joys was the opportunity to meet and engage with so many of you. Your feedback affirmed what we felt deeply — this conference was set apart for something special.
Run2Win achieved the ambitious goals we set and answered our prayers for a conference that would challenge and expand our thought processes. It wasn't just about discussing candidates, policies, or social issues; it was a Kingdom-centered, God-focused event that aimed to lay the groundwork for a conservative movement poised for growth and success.
Thank you to everyone who prayed for this conference and to all who sent messages of support before and after the event. Your encouragement truly fuels our continued commitment to our cause. |

KEY EDUCATION BILLS GET SIGNED Prior to Run2Win, Frontline was honored to join Governor Kemp for the signings of SB 233 and SB 351.
SB 233 is a huge leap forward for school choice in our state! One of Frontline’s priority bills for two years, this bill, while not perfect, will serve as the launching point to achieving full, universal school choice in our state in the future. It empowers parents of public school children zoned in the bottom 25% of school districts (i.e. “failing schools”) with the ability to access $6,500 per child annually to seek the very best educational option that matches the needs of each individual child.
We are grateful for the incredible effort of frontline allies Sen. Greg Dolezal, Rep. Todd Jones, Speaker Pro Tem Jan Jones, and House and Senate Leadership for prioritizing this transformational educational policy!
Another piece of truly historic legislation is SB 351, sponsored by our friend Sen. Jason Anavitarte and a key part of Lt. Gov. Burt Jones as well, which is now the gold standard in online child protection nationwide! It institutes age-verification requirements for social media accounts, empowering parental oversight for children under 16, and requires age-verification to access websites featuring adult content as well. This legislation has been demonstrated to send the porn industry into a panic, and we are excited about its effect in protecting children from the scourge of online pornography!
This legislation also makes a huge leap forward in protecting kids in educational settings, requiring schools to update their technology protection measures (TPMs) used to filter objectionable content, banning the use of social media on gov’t devices Special thanks to Rep. Rick Jasperse for sponsoring the initial bill (HB 910).

FRONTLINE POLICY ACTION RELEASES FIRST 2024 ENDORSEMENT FOR JUSTICE ANDREW PINSON
Yesterday, you likely received our first endorsement announcement for 2024, championing Justice Andrew Pinson for the Georgia Supreme Court. A former clerk for Clarence Thomas and known for his textualist judicial philosophy, Justice Pinson embodies the rule of law, applying legislation as written without bias.
His approach starkly contrasts with his opponent, John Barrow, who advocates for pro-abortion policies. This election will influence critical decisions on the Heartbeat Law, parental rights, and more. With the election on May 21st and early voting already in progress, it's crucial to rally support for Justice Pinson. Let’s uphold our values and ensure our Supreme Court reflects them. Read more about our endorsement HERE. And stay tuned for more Action endorsements… |
TITLE IX UPDATE
Most have you have probably seen the troubling headlines about Biden’s changes to Title IX. Our General Counsel, Chelsea Thompson, recorded an update that outlines the shifts in Title IX regulations that redefine sex discrimination, compromising the safety, fairness, and success of women and girls in educational settings across the country. She also discusses the steps being taken, including legal actions led by Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr, to challenge these changes and uphold the original intentions of Title IX.
Our message is clear: It's time to stand firm and advocate for the rights and well-being of women and girls. Watch her full briefing to understand more about what these changes mean, how they affect you, and what Frontline is doing to push back against these policies.
