Fellow Conservative,
This week, we released polling on critical race theory. The results were not necessarily shocking:
- 61% agreed that America was not built on white supremacy and we are not a fundamentally racist country.
- 79% agreed that children should never be taught their destiny and inherent value depend on their skin color.
- 64% disagreed that white Americans are inherently racist.

Only 16% of respondents, across all political spectrums, agreed that they want their children to be taught critical race theory. The data doesn’t lie — Americans do not want their children to be taught their worth is based on their skin color.
The Left is backpedaling so hard, they are now trying to say that critical race theory isn’t being taught in schools. They are lying. In 2019, the Loudoun County, Virginia school district paid nearly $500,000 <[link removed]> for trainings to teach about critical race theory.
Make sure your school district isn’t teaching children this
rotten ideology. Go to CRTbook.com <[link removed]> to download our “Reject CRT” ebook, with information on how to submit a FOIA request and get information in your school district.
The Latest on Election Integrity
Here’s some quick updates:
Arizona—The AZ legislative session has now concluded, after extending past the originally scheduled end date. Arizona activists and legislators stayed tough and pushed for election integrity bills till the very end. More on the specific
bills>>> <[link removed]>
And on Thursday, the Supreme Court released a major decision upholding important Arizona election laws. Brnovich v. DNC was decided 6-3, and upholds the constitutionality of Arizona’s laws to ban ballot harvesting and mandate that voters use their assigned precinct to cast their votes.

HAFA in the News
“Our Republic Will Not be Deterred <[link removed]>”–– Jessica Anderson wrote an op-ed for Townhall to describe the Left’s intentions behind their wishes of a federal overhaul of US elections:
Speaker Pelosi and Leader Schumer may have forgotten that democracy isn’t synonymous with the agenda of the Democratic party, but Americans have not. True democracy is Americans fighting for what they believe in and working to preserve the constitutional order and fair elections. And Americans will not be deterred.
“To fix health care, try putting patients in charge <[link removed]>”–– Jessica Anderson teamed up with Marie Fishpaw to pen an op-ed for the Washington Times. They laid out how Obamacare, along with restrictive healthcare laws, have failed patients by delivering higher costs and fewer options. We need a more patient-focused healthcare system, as developed <[link removed]> by The Heritage Foundation.
“Voter ID upholds election integrity <[link removed]>”–– Heritage Action Regional Manager Stephanie Kreuz was published in the Detroit News,
where she outlined the importance of making it easy to vote and hard to cheat in Michigan:
Recent polling by the Detroit Regional Chamber shows that 80% of Michigan residents support requiring a government-issued ID to vote. And Strategic National polling shows that a wide majority of Michigan residents reject the false claim that requiring voter ID at the polls is discriminatory.
