Dear friend,
Created in 2012 to counterbalance the consumerist ethos of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, #GivingTuesday is a global holiday dedicated to generosity—a day that encourages people to invest in their communities and civil society through generous support for the non profits they believe in.
At EPPC, we are kicking off our end of year campaign this #GivingTuesday, and are asking you to consider joining us as we pursue an ambitious goal to raise $250,000 by the end of the year ([link removed]) .
Your fully tax-deductible gift to EPPC by December 31st will help us continue our crucial work in 2022, as we provide much needed leadership in the intensifying battles over abortion, medical ethics, religion in the public square, and Big Tech. You can read below to see some of our significant publications from the past few days, as an example of the vital work EPPC is doing to renew our country.
With #GivingTuesday one week away, we hope you will join us in the urgent effort to preserve the Judeo-Christian tradition in American public life.
Wishing you and your family a beautiful time together this Thanksgiving,
Ryan T. Anderson
President, EPPC

** ARE THERE ANY ADULTS LEFT IN AMERICA?
------------------------------------------------------------
By EPPC Senior Fellow Carl R. Trueman
WORLD Opinions
------------------------------------------------------------
In describing Israel during the time of the judges, the Bible says on several occasions that “in those days in Israel there was no king.” In years to come, when the history of 21st-century America is written, the phrase is more likely to be “in those days, the U.S.A. had no adults.” Read More ([link removed])

** HOW CAN REPUBLICANS COURT MORE DIVERSE VOTERS? TURN TO RONALD REAGAN.
------------------------------------------------------------
By EPPC Senior Fellow Henry Olsen
The Washington Post
------------------------------------------------------------
Evidence is accumulating that Hispanic, Asian and even some Black Americans are increasingly voting Republican. GOP leaders are naturally eager to cement these new voters’ loyalties. To do that, they should reexamine a speech Ronald Reagan gave more than 40 years ago. Read More ([link removed])
