  • It isn’t stunning to allow doctors to work

    With their patients to make health decisions. In fact, it’s common sense! That’s why we’re putting those common sense things into state Constitutions and we’ll put it back in our federal Constitution soon too. Also, the GOP will get right with women’s rights or not hold meaningful political power in these United States ever again. Happy New Year!

  • Women, like men, are sovereign over their bodies

    And all issue therein. You may not understand this today, but you will when the WHPA passes in January 2025. Tick tock!

  • Public Square

    Let’s take it back with well reasoned discussion and debate. Let’s elect principled conservative women, all across America. Let’s codify fair election results, fighting against everything in HR1. Pray for Senator Joe Manchin and upholding the filibuster. That will stop many radical ideas, like statehood for DC.

    Also, is everything in the 2 minute podcast covered in the longer version.

Frequently Asked Questions About The Public Square

What is The Public Square about and what kind of topics does it cover?

Two-minute daily briefings mix news, policy, and faith-driven commentary from two longtime hosts who co-create a concise, opinionated take on current events.
