Defunding the Indefensible

What to Know: President Trump has threatened to remove the tax exempt-status from radical left colleges and universities.

The TPPF Take: Why should the American people subsidize anti-Americanism?

“America is still the last best hope for humans on earth,” says TPPF’s Kevin Roberts. “But we have thousands—if not a few million Americans—who don’t agree with that. And that’s because anti-Americanism is being taught in our universities. But too many elected officials don’t wish to take a bold stand against it.”

The Path Forward

What to Know: Our ability to emerge from the pandemic-induced recession will depend on affordable, reliable energy.

The TPPF Take: Fossil fuels are helping to beat the coronavirus, and they will fuel our economic recovery.

“As we weather and emerge from this national crisis, our elected leaders must remember how critical affordable, reliable energy was to getting us through the coronavirus pandemic — and reject any policy proposals that would put that energy in jeopardy,” says TPPF’s Katie Tahuahua. “It’s more apparent than ever how intimately entwined our lives are with the availability of electricity.”

Help for Hispanic Families

What to Know: President Trump has signed an executive order expanding school choice for Hispanic students.

The TPPF Take: Parents know best—and the President’s executive order acknowledges and advances this truth.

“Latinos compose nearly 40 percent of Texans and are a vital, vibrant part of the Texas economy,” says TPPF’s Rafa Bejar. “The President’s order will help to ensure that their education, which forms the foundation of their invaluable contribution to our state and our culture, is as strong as possible. The White House Hispanic Prosperity Initiative will help advance school choice, which will allow parents to enroll their children in the educational environments that meet their individual needs.”
