Heritage Action will continue fighting for conservative policy solutions and we look forward to working with the new leadership team.”

Second GOP Debate part 2
As night fell on the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library, the stage occupied again with this time eleven GOP hopefuls.

Is Hillary Really Done This Time?
One thing we know about the Clinton's from Whitewater, is that having mounds of evidence does not mean jail time, at least not for them.
Democrats’ plans to make college more affordable will do anything but.
Democratic candidates are tripping over themselves to provide subsidies for college tuition. Hillary Clinton's idea is to wipe out student debt by sending states huge block grants for education. The funds for the grants would be paid for by eliminating or limiting tax deductions for the wealthy.

The now famous dust-up between Rand Paul and Chris Christie during Thursday's Republican debate over our fourth amendment rights versus national security was a microcosm of the one held nationally in the months leading up to the PATRIOT Act's renewal in June.
Conservatives Have Good Night in First GOP Debate.
The question of who would emerge as the ‘dark horse’ candidate was answered. Her name is Carly Fiorina, and her attacks on the two respective front-runners, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump landed like precision-guided bombs on their targets.
