Veterans deserve better than partisan games.

Project 21's Emery McClendon says the VFW is letting politics stand in the way of legislation that could deliver real benefits to veterans and their families.

“When the VFW veers instead into partisan political squabbling and attention-seeking obstructionism, I can only be disappointed.”

Who elected California to make the rules for the rest of America?

Former Indiana Attorney General Curtis Hill warns that California is using its massive market power to force its policies on businesses and consumers nationwide.

“That is not federalism,” writes Curtis, who now serves with the Free Enterprise Project and Project 21.

He explains how other states can fight back and reclaim their right to govern themselves.

What if Americans with disabilities could carry their funding with them instead of navigating a maze of government programs?

That's the idea behind innovative “ABLE backpacks” championed by Able Americans Director Rachel Barkley.

A new American Enterprise Institute report highlights her vision for bringing funding from multiple government programs into one flexible account, giving individuals greater choice, control and independence.

The funding should follow the person, not the bureaucracy!

“Is this about genuine accountability, or is the county executive trying to save face after the controversy became public?”

In the Washington Times, Project 21’s Delegate LaToya Marie Caldwell-Nkongolo calls out Prince George’s County, Maryland, officials after questions surfaced over untraceable grant money.

She says the response looks “reactionary rather than proactive.”

Prince George’s County Council Chair Krystal Oriadha is trying to claw back $7.6 million in taxpayer funds she directed to a personal friend’s charity, following mounting public backlash.

Bank of America debanks conservatives but fails to flag billions in suspicious transactions linked to Chinese money laundering networks?

“It is ironic that an institution called ‘Bank of America’ has apparently been more interested in debanking conservative Americans based on their political ideology than in debanking Chinese account holders through which Communist China may be actively trying to subvert and harm America,” says Free Enterprise Project Director Steve Milloy.

Now facing a $1.2 BILLION penalty, the bank owes shareholders answers.

Starbucks’ $1 million DEI settlement sends a message corporate America shouldn’t ignore.

In a new commentary, former Indiana Attorney General Curtis Hill explains why Florida’s action isn’t a political stunt. It’s about enforcing longstanding civil rights law and ensuring employment decisions are based on merit, not race or s*x.

When it comes to DEI, corporate "boards need not follow the nearest political coalition. They simply need to read the law," writes former Indiana Attorney General Curtis T. Hill, Jr., who now serves with the Free Enterprise Project and Project 21.

Cornell’s “safety” crackdown could actually put students in MORE danger.

Project 21 Chairman Horace Cooper warns that targeting fraternities won’t stop college parties. It may simply drive them underground, where there’s less oversight and greater risk.
