The New Liberal Bulletin isn’t just an email —it’s also the name of our blog, where we’re ramping up written content from CNL leadership and members. Our website’s homepage [[link removed]] and “What We Believe” [[link removed]] page also got sleek refreshes, making it easier to find our latest blog posts and podcasts, and see what we believe.
Check out our first piece [[link removed]] in The New Liberal Bulletin , where CNL’s Matt Hughes and Morgan Rinehart argue that Senator Thom Tillis is putting political gain over national security.
