|

The crowd at this weekend's Values Voter Summit will be witnessing history Friday at the Omni Shoreham Hotel in D.C. For the first time in 14 years, VVS will be welcoming a sitting HHS Secretary, Alex Azar. With three years of pro-life and pro-freedom accomplishments under his belt, Secretary Azar will have plenty to talk about as head of one of the most important government agencies in the country. From Title X regulations to protecting conscience rights, and everything in between, Azar's HHS has done more to advance a culture of life than anyone's.

Supreme Court Hears Cases About Redefining "Sex"
|
|
by Peter Sprigg
|
|
|
|
Today, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in three cases which could either advance the aims of the LGBT movement or preserve the rule of law. At issue is the meaning of discrimination on the basis of "sex" in the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The most common-sense understanding would be that "sex" means one's biological sex at birth, and "sex discrimination" means favoring men over women or women over men.
