On Corporations:
Rescind the "persuader rule" on disclosing advice to workers
During the Obama Administration, DOL created significant regulatory burdens for employers with respect to the advice that employers receive about union activity. As a general matter, employers who hire lawyers or other consultants to
advise employees about union issues must file disclosure forms with the department, as must the lawyers and consultants themselves.
Prior to the Obama Administration, advice provided solely to the employer required no disclosure. The Obama Administration attempted to eliminate this "advice exemption" with a directive known as the "persuader rule," which was successfully challenged
in court. In 2018, the Trump Administration formally rescinded the persuader rule. DOL should rescind the persuader rule once again should the Biden Administration revive it.

End"List of Shame" of faith-based college Title IX exemption
Educational institutions can claim a religious exemption from the strictures of Title IX. In 2016, the Obama Administration published on the Department of Education's website a list of colleges that had applied for the exemption. This "list of shame" of
faith-based colleges, as it came to be known, has since been archived on ED's website, still publicly available. The President should issue an executive order removing the archived list and preventing such a list from being published in the future.

On Energy & Oil:
No industrial policy nor economy-wide climate policy
The Department of Energy's Office of Policy (OP) has taken various roles over different Administrations. During the Obama Administration, OP was a large office and was tasked with drafting the Quadrennial Energy Review (QER). The Trump Administration
shut down the QER & gave OP a leaner research and advisory role. Under the Biden DOE, OP appears to be focused on preparing reports on climate change and renewables.OP could be tasked with developing a National Energy Security Strategy in conjunction
with the White House National Security Strategy. Such a strategy could summarize cyber and physical threats to energy infrastructure, challenges involved in obtaining rare earth minerals to support domestic energy production and consumption, and foreign
actions that threaten U.S. energy security and dominance. However, it would be important to guard against attempts to transform the strategy into a government-led industrial policy or, in a progressive Administration, an economy-wide climate policy.

On Energy & Oil:
Climate mitigation instead of war on fossil fuels
President Biden issued executive orders to "put the climate crisis at the center of U.S. foreign policy and national security." The Administration has incorporated its radical climate policy into every USAID initiative. The Biden Administration's
extreme climate policies have worsened global food insecurity and hunger. Its anti–fossil fuel agenda has led to a sharp spike in global energy prices.USAID should cease its war on fossil fuels in the developing world and support the responsible
management of oil and gas reserves as the quickest way to end wrenching poverty and the need for open-ended foreign aid. The next conservative Administration should rescind all climate policies from its foreign aid programs (specifically USAID's
Climate Strategy 2022-20307 ); shut down the agency's offices, programs, and directives designed to advance the Paris Climate Agreement; and narrowly limit funding to traditional climate mitigation efforts.

On Families & Children:
Eliminate the woke ideology Gender Policy Council
The President should immediately revoke Executive Order 14020 (signed by President Biden in 2021) and every policy, including subregulatory guidance documents, produced on behalf of or related to
the establishment or promotion of the Gender Policy Council and its subsidiary issues. Abolishing the Gender Policy Council would eliminate central promotion of abortion ("health services"); comprehensive sexuality education ("education"); and the
new woke gender ideology, which has as a principal tenet "gender affirming care" and "sex-change" surgeries on minors. In addition to eliminating the council, developing new structures
and positions will have the dual effect of demonstrating that promoting life and strengthening the family is a priority while also facilitating more seamless coordination and consistency across the U.S. government.

Married mother, father, & children are nation's foundation
(p.451): Families comprised of a married mother, father, and their children are the foundation of a well-ordered nation and healthy society. Unfortunately, family policies and programs under Pres.Biden's HHS [Department of Health & Human Services] are
fraught with agenda items focusing on "LGBTQ+ equity," subsidizing single-motherhood, disincentivizing work, & penalizing marriage. These policies should be repealed and replaced by policies that support the formation of stable, married, nuclear families.
(p.187): African nations are particularly (and reasonably) non-receptive to the US social policies such as abortion & pro-LGBT initiatives being imposed on them. The US should reject the promotion of divisive policies that hurt the deepening of shared
goals between the US and its African partners.
(p.488-9): [HHS should] investigate, expose, and remediate any instances in which HHS violated people's rights by colluding with abortion advocates and LGBT advocates to violate conscience-protection laws.

On Foreign Policy:
Pressure Iran away from nukes & toward democracy
Instead of pressuring the Iranian theocracy to move toward democracy, the Obama Administration threw the brutal regime an economic lifeline by giving hundreds of billions of dollars to the Iranian government and providing other sanctions relief.
This economic relief did not moderate the regime, but emboldened its brutality, its efforts to expand its nuclear weapons programs, and its support for global terrorism.The next Administration should neither preserve nor repeat the mistakes of the
Obama and Biden Administrations. The correct future policy for Iran is one that acknowledges that it is in U.S. national security interests, the Iranian people's human rights interests, and a broader global interest in peace and stability for the
Iranian people to have the democratic government they demand. The U.S. can utilize economic and diplomatic tools to ease the path toward a free Iran and a renewed relationship with the Iranian people.

The reality is that the PRC's [People's Republic of China's] actions often do sound like conspiracy theories--because they are conspiracies. In addition, some knowingly or not parrot the Communist line: Global leaders including

On Government Reform:
Terminate federal FEMA emergency grants; switch to states
FEMA manages all grants for DHS, and these grants have become pork for states, localities, and special-interest groups. Since 2002, DHS/FEMA have provided more than $56 billion in preparedness grants for state, local, tribal, and territorial governments.
For FY 2023, President Biden requested more than $3.5 billion for federal assistance grants.Funds provided under these programs do not provide measurable gains for preparedness or resiliency. Rather, more than any objective needs, political interests
appear to direct the flow of non-disaster funds. States better understand their unique needs and should bear the costs of their particularized programs. FEMA employees in Washington should not determine how billions of federal tax dollars should be
awarded. DHS should not be in the business of handing out federal tax dollars: These grants should be terminated. Accomplishing this, however, will require action by Members of Congress who repeatedly vote to fund grants for political reasons.

directly benefit from doing business with Beijing.(p.768): In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, almost certainly spawned in a CCP [Chinese Communist Party] biological weapons lab in Wuhan, China, global supply chains have been under significant
pressures from lockdown policies, energy price shocks, and other disruptions, including labor market disruptions. At the height of the pandemic, the rising geopolitical risk associated with globalized supply chains was underscored when Communist China,
which controls much of the world's pharmaceutical production and supply, threatened to plunge America "into a mighty sea of coronavirus" through pharmaceutical export controls if American politicians dared to investigate what happened at the Wuhan lab.

On Jobs:
Work ethic at the heart of Judeo-Christian tradition
At the heart of The Conservative Promise is the resolve to reclaim the role of each American worker as the protagonist in his or her own life and to restore the family as the centerpiece of American life. The role that labor policy plays in that promise
is twofold: Give workers the support they need for rewarding, well-paying, and self-driven careers, and restore the family-supporting job as the centerpiece of the American economy. The Judeo-Christian tradition, stretching back to
Genesis, has always recognized fruitful work as integral to human dignity, as service to God, neighbor, and family. And Americans have long been known for their work ethic. While it is primarily the culture's responsibility to affirm the dignity of
work, our federal labor and employment agencies have an important role to play by protecting workers, setting boundaries for the healthy functioning of labor markets, and ultimately encouraging wages and conditions for jobs that can support a family

On Technology:
Reset Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy Framework
In 2022, the Biden Administration negotiated a new agreement, the Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy Framework, intended to withstand European legal challenges. At most, the executive order's changes will be helpful support for the framework in future European
litigation; at worst, they could throw sand in the gears of important intelligence programs.An incoming conservative President should reset Europe's expectations. Brussels has always arbitraged the difference between being a military ally against,
for example, Russia and conducting a full-blown trade conflict with the U.S. Restrictions on data exports have been part of the trade conflict, but now they could seriously harm our military and intelligence capabilities. Moreover, restrictions on
U.S. intelligence collection hurt the Europeans themselves, especially as the United States shares unprecedented amounts of intelligence on Russia's invasion of Ukraine with Europeans.

On War & Peace:
Restore offensive deterrence, including Space Force
The Biden Administration has eliminated almost all offensive deterrence capabilities and instead will rely solely on defensive capabilities of disaggregation, maneuver, and reconstitution--the most costly, the slowest, and ultimately the most fragile
architecture selection. - Reestablish offensive capabilities to guarantee a favorable balance of forces, efficiently manage the full deterrence spectrum, and seriously complicate enemy calculations of a successful first strike against U.S. space
assets.
- Restore architectural balance in U.S. space forces, both offensive and defensive, to restore deterrence dominance efficiently and quickly.
- Rapidly expand space control capability, to include cis-lunar space (the region beginning at
geosynchronous altitude and encompassing the moon), to provide early warning of an enemy attack.
- Seek arms control and "rules of the road" understandings only when they are unambiguously in the interests of the U.S. and its allies.

From the moment of conception, every human being possesses inherent dignity and worth, and our humanity does not depend on our age, stage of development, race, or abilities.

The national organization reported more than $133 million in excess revenue and more than $2.1 billion in net assets.
During this same year, Planned Parenthood reports that its affiliates received more than $633 million in government funding and more than $579 million in private contributions.

Maternal and infant mortality is a global tragedy
The continued high rate of maternal and infant mortality is a persistent global tragedy. Contrary to current publicity, this problem is not solved by abortion. Families genuinely cherish children. The next [administration] must focus attention on women
and children's health (including unborn children) as well as health risks across life spans, including childhood infections, cervical cancer, adolescent risks, and family stability, by utilizing a coordinated approach. The Bureau should implement
a "Request for Application for Resilient Families" that harvests collaborative funds from siloed programs and makes individuals and the family, not diseases or conditions, the true focus of intervention.HHS also pushes abortion as a form of "health
care," skirting and sometimes blatantly defying the Hyde Amendment in the process. The next secretary should replace [Biden administration] policies with those encouraging marriage, work, motherhood, fatherhood, and nuclear families.

On Health Care:
Employer-based health insurance induces overconsumption
Basic economics holds that costs tend to decrease and quality and options tend to increase when there is robust and free competition in the provision of goods and services. Health care is no exception. Health care reform should be patient-centered and
market-based and should empower individuals to control their health care–related dollars and decisions.America's broken insurance system, run largely through confusing provider networks and third-party payers (employers), induces overconsumption of
health care, limits consumer shopping, and hides true costs from patients. The federal government should focus reform on reducing burdens of regulatory compliance, unleashing innovation in health care delivery, ceasing interference in the daily lives of
patients and providers, allowing alternative insurance coverage options, and returning control of health care dollars to patients making decisions with their providers about their health care treatments and services.

On Health Care:
Reduce Medicare regulatory burdens on doctors
Medicare. Medicare should be reformed according to four goals and principles:- Increase Medicare beneficiaries' control of their health care. Patients are best positioned to determine the value of health care services, working with their
health care providers. They also benefit from increased choice of doctors, hospitals, and insurance plans.
- Reduce regulatory burdens on doctors. Doctors must be free to focus on treating patients first, not entering codes on computers, and
should not be tempted to change their medical judgment based on arbitrary or illogical reimbursement incentives.
- Ensure sustainability and value for beneficiaries and taxpayers. Prices are best for patients when determined by economic value
rather than political power and when they are known in advance of the receipt of services.
- Reduce waste, fraud, and abuse, including through the use of artificial intelligence for their detection.

On Civil Rights:
End Critical Race Theory (CRT) training & classification
The Biden Administration has pushed "racial equity" in every area of our national life, including in employment, and has condoned the use of racial classifications and racial preferences under the guise of DEI and critical race theory, which categorizes
individuals as oppressors and victims based on race. Nondiscrimination and equality are the law; DEI is not. Title VII flatly prohibits discrimination in employment on the basis of race, color, and national origin.The President should:-
Issue an executive order banning the federal government from using taxpayer dollars to fund all critical race theory training (CRT).
- Enforce Title VII. The President should direct the DOJ and EEOC to prohibit racial classifications and quotas,
including human-resources classifications and DEI trainings that promote critical race theory.

It has long been suspected that corporate social advocacy on issues ranging from "Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion" (DEI) to the "environmental, social, and governance" (ESG) movement also serves to launder corporate reputation and perhaps obtain
favorable treatment from government actors.The FTC should set up an ESG/DEI collusion task force to investigate firms--particularly in private equity--to see if they are using the practice as a means to meet targets, fix prices, or reduce output.
Congress should investigate ESG practices as a cover for anticompetitive activity and possible unfair trade practices. The business of American business is business, not ideology. Managers, particularly in publicly traded corporations,
who use their power to advance sets of fashionable moral beliefs, such as ESG/DEI, introduce agency problems into the shareholder relationship and appropriate corporate wealth for their own benefit

laptop in 2020 strongly suggest that the FBI is completely out of control. The next conservative Administration should:- Conduct an immediate, comprehensive review of all major active FBI investigations and terminate any that are unlawful or
contrary to the national interest.
- Prohibit the FBI from engaging in activities related to combating the spread of so-called misinformation and disinformation by Americans who are not tied to any plausible criminal activity.

On Environment:
EPA is environmental regulator: no land use policy
A conservative U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will take a more supportive role toward local and state efforts, building them up so that they may lead in a meaningful fashion. This will include the sharing of federal resources and agency
expertise. Creating environmental standards from the ground up is consistent with the concept of cooperative federalism embedded within many of the agency's authorizing statutes and will create earnest relationships among local officials and
regulated stakeholders. This in turn will promote a culture of compliance.The EPA has long been amenable to being coopted by the Left for political ends against the need to implement the agency's true function: protecting public health and the
environment in cooperation with states. Further, the EPA needs to be realigned away from attempts to make it an all-powerful energy and land use policymaker and returned to its congressionally sanctioned role as environmental regulator.

Their product is as addictive as any illicit drug and as psychologically destructive as any crime.Pornography should be outlawed. The people who produce and distribute it should be imprisoned. Educators and public librarians

A new conservative President should reset USAID's programming in the Middle East in line with our national security interests and committed to the goal of ending the need for foreign aid through development that is led by the private sector.
Specifically: Foreign aid must advance the Abraham Accords. Increased trade and investment between Israel and its Arab neighbors represent the most effective path toward reducing poverty, fostering the emergence of a middle class, and solidifying peace.
USAID should therefore focus its development assistance on countries such as Morocco and Sudan through joint investment collaboration with the more economically advanced economies such as the UAE and Israel

Refocus Africa policy to Counter malign Chinese activity
Africa's importance to U.S. foreign policy and strategic interests is rising. Its explosive population growth, large reserves of industry-dependent minerals, proximity to key maritime shipping routes, and its collective diplomatic power ensure the
continent's global importance. Yet as Africa's strategic significance has grown, the U.S.'s relative influence there has declined. America's competitors are making significant gains: The PRC's companies dominate the African supply chain for certain
minerals critical to emerging technologies.The new Administration can correct this strategic failing of existing policy by:- Shift strategic focus from assistance to growth.
- Counter malign Chinese activity on the continent.
- Counter the
furtherance of terrorism [including] African country-based terrorist groups like Boko Haram.

- Revisit the No Surprises Act on surprise medical billing.
- Facilitate the development of shared savings and reference pricing plan options.
- Separate the subsidized ACA exchange market from the non-subsidized
insurance market. The ACA has made insurance more expensive and less competitive, and the ACA subsidy scheme simply masks these impacts. To make health insurance coverage more affordable for those who are without government subsidies, [the next
Administration] should develop a plan to separate the non-subsidized insurance market from the subsidized market, giving the non-subsidized market regulatory relief from the costly ACA regulatory mandates.

Control border by enforcement, detention and deportation
Unfortunately for our nation, the [Department of Homeland Security] became like every other federal agency: bloated, bureaucratic, and expensive. It also lost sight of its mission priorities. To truly secure the homeland, a conservative Administration
needs to return the department to the right mission, the right size, and the right budget. This would include reorganizing the department and shifting significant resources away from several supporting components to the essential operational components.
Prioritizing border security and immigration enforcement, including detention and deportation, is critical if we are to regain control of the border, repair the historic damage done by the Biden Administration, return to a lawful and orderly
immigration system, and protect the homeland from terrorism and public safety threats. This also includes consolidating the pieces of the fragmented immigration system into one agency to fulfill the mission more efficiently.

US residency for people from emergency zones. Sixteen countries currently have TPS designations. They are Afghanistan, Myanmar (Burma), Cameroon, El Salvador, Ethiopia, Haiti, Honduras, Nepal, Nicaragua, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan, Syria,
