, I'm excited to share the latest from CRC with you:
Have teachers unions overplayed their hand? ([link removed]
As harm to students grows, state legislatures in both red and blue states are acting against union obstinacy in order to get children back into classrooms. Some states are enacting even bolder reforms that will increase parental power over education and limit the monopoly that teachers unions have enjoyed for decades.

On Monday, I testified before the Arizona Senate. ([link removed]
Continuing CRC's tour of legislatures, I testified (virtually) before the Arizona Senate's Committee on Government. Using CRC research ([link removed] on the Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL), I revealed how CTCL, powered by hundreds of millions of dollars from Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg, intervened in Arizona's election. Read my testimony here ([link removed] watch it here ([link removed] my tussles with a hostile Senator). Watch my earlier testimony before an Arizona House committee here ([link removed] The Arizona House has passed a ban on nonprofit electioneering like CTCL committed in November, and the Senate is expected to follow suit.
Why is the Left waging a war on coal? ([link removed]
With President Biden in the White House and radical environmentalists in the driver's seat, the Left continues its long war against coal. Eco-activists, with their rich and powerful allies in the oil and natural gas industries, will use ideological pressure campaigns and crony capitalism to advance their "green" agenda, jacking up electricity rates and sticking ratepayers with the bill. CRC's Hayden Ludwig explores the Left's coal-free, "green" new world here ([link removed]
What is American Compass thinking? ([link removed]
A vocal faction of "labor conservatives" who form a "redistributionist right" are bent on importing social-democratic European labor relations models into the American economy. Why they want to strengthen organized labor, a pillar of the Left, is mystifying. As a partial answer, Michael Watson examines the finances of American Compass ([link removed] a leader in the "conservative labor movement," and finds two major left-wing institutional funders here ([link removed]

InfluenceWatch Podcast 160The Worst Bill in Congress ([link removed] this episode ([link removed] week, the U.S. House of Representatives again advanced the odious catalog of Big Labor favors known as the PRO Act on a nearly party-line vote. While the legislation will likely stall in the Senate as long as the filibuster remains in effect, the proposal remains a priority of the Biden administration, which means Big Labor's Sword of Damocles will hang over American workers and American businesses for at least the remainder of this Congress. Joining me to discuss the threat posed by the legislation is Ed Egee, vice president for workforce development at the National Retail Federation.Subscribe to the podcast on iTunes, Spotify, or Stitcher.
