FEATURED
A Year of Assaults from Biden’s HHS
Rachel N. Morrison for The Federalist

March 18 marks one year since pro-abortion radical Xavier Becerra was confirmed as President Joe Biden’s appointee for secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Although both men claim to be faithful Catholics, they have launched unprecedented attacks on people of faith by eliminating vital conscience and religious freedom protections and funneling millions of taxpayer dollars to the abortion industry.

At the HHS Accountability Project at the Ethics and Public Policy Center in Washington, D.C., we have been keeping tabs on HHS personnel and policy. The oft-heard maxim “personnel is policy” is no exception for HHS, the largest federal agency by budget. While Becerra was AWOL on the Covid fight, he was outright zealous on culture war issues, leading HHS’s singular focus on pushing pro-abortion and anti-religion policies on the American people.

Discontents of the Modern Self:
A Conversation with Carl R. Trueman, Benjamin Storey, and Jenna Silber Storey

 Monday, March 28, 2022 | 5:00 PM to 6:15 PM ET

1789 Massachusetts Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20036

Every society is animated by an assumed understanding of the nature and purpose of human life. What understanding animates contemporary American society? How did this view become dominant? What are its possibilities and its discontents?

This conversation, moderated by EPPC President Ryan T. Anderson, brings together EPPC Fellow Carl R. Trueman, author of “Strange New World: How Thinkers and Activists Redefined Identity and Sparked the Sexual Revolution” (Crossway, 2022), and AEI’s Benjamin Storey and Jenna Silber Storey, authors of “Why We Are Restless: On the Modern Quest for Contentment” (Princeton University Press, 2021). They will discuss the character of the modern self, a philosophic idea with profound implications for public policy, from how we understand religious liberty to how we educate our children.
