“The fundamental problem of figuring out how much government we want, and how we’re going to pay for it, pervades politics at the national, state and local levels, and is even more urgent in other advanced democracies than it is here in America.

“It is no longer enough to ask whether people like it when government gives things to them and does things for them. The crucial question becomes whether people like modern government’s endeavors enough to pay for them.”

William Voegeli is the author of Never Enough: America’s Limitless Welfare State (Encounter Books), a senior editor of the Claremont Review of Books, and a visiting scholar at Claremont McKenna College’s Henry Salvatori Center.

His work has appeared in the Christian Science Monitor, City Journal, Commentary, First Things, In Character, the Los Angeles Times, National Review, and the New Criterion. Dr. Voegeli writes for the Ashbrook Center blog, “No Left Turns.” After receiving a doctorate in political science from Loyola University in Chicago he was a program officer for the John M. Olin Foundation.

Please join us and learn from this eminent scholar how money drives government.

 The Devastating Impact of Obama’s Politics on

Young People

A regular gues on Fox News and a popular campus speaker, Kate Obenshain is an articulate, fearless defender of conservative principles.  She inspires audiences with her passionate, experienced insights, never hesitating to speak her mind, even when it contradicts the political establishment – as it often does.

Kate is vice president of Young America’s Foundation, the principal youth outreach organization of the Conservative Movement.  YAF motivates emerging young leaders at the Reagan Ranch, Reagan Ranch Center, and student campuses across the country.

Encouraging young people to become philosophically knowledgeable and active in public policy issues is a driving passion for Kate.  In 2003, she founded and is chairman of a public policy leadership training program for women in Virginia. She has been speaking on college campuses for 18 years, enlightening and entertaining students on a wide variety of issues including economic policy, national security, education, life, political correctness on campus, and the changing role of women in public policy.

Ms. Obenshain garnered national attention as chairman of the Virginia GOP from 2003 to 2006, when she led the charge against tax increases and the expanding role of government. She served as Virginia Senator George Allen’s chief of staff and as his chief education and health policy advisor while he was governor.

Along with Ann Coulter, Laura Schlessinger, Phyllis Schlafly and Jeane Kirkpatrick, Kate’s work is featured in the book, Great American Conservative Women.  She has been featured in five of the Clare Boothe Luce Policy Institute’s annual calendars and currently serves on their board.  She is a co-founder of James 1:27 Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing assistance to widows and orphans in times of crisis.

Kate appears on numerous cable news shows, including Hannity, The O’Reilly Factor, Bulls and Bears, Your World with Neil Cavuto, Hard Ball and Larry Kudlow’s The Call.  Her writings have been featured in The Washington Times, Human Events, The Richmond Times Dispatch, and other publications.  She also speaks regularly at Tea Party rallies and special events all across the country.
