This is outstanding. The beginnings of justice. “Land­mark Health­care Fraud Set­tle­ment that Cre­ates the Nation’s First-Ever Detran­si­tion Clin­ic and Secures $10Mil­lion from Texas Children’s Hos­pi­tal for “Tran­si­tion­ing” Kids” texasattorneygeneral.gov/news/releases/…

My dad built something truly special out of nothing. He walked away from a lucrative Big Law job to launch something unheard of--fighting for everybody's religious liberty? Even the religions you disagree with? It was a huge risk--he would always half-joke that in Becket's first office, you couldn't open the door all the way because it would hit his desk. They had many tough months getting off the ground--and he always paid himself last, if at all. But he never lost faith because he knew in his heart he was doing it in service to God. Today, Becket has dozens of Supreme Court precedents--Little Sisters of the Poor, Hobby Lobby, etc--to its name and is largely responsible for the words "under God" remaining in the Pledge of Allegiance. My dad kept running Becket while battling Parkinson's for years--and then had the humility to step away when the time was right (a rare trait in Washington!) A truly special organization founded by a truly special man.

"For all its cultural power, secular liberalism has fallen into an internal crisis, shadowed by pessimism and despair." - @DouthatNYT youtube.com/watch?v=r_tv2m…

A very good overview from Dale Coulter of the current state of affairs in Protestant natural law theory. The volume @RyanTAnd and I edited is referenced as evidence of a growing reception to natural law theory. protestantmind.com/p/protestants-…

"President Trump can correct the Biden administration’s mistake. Restoring the in-person safeguard would protect women’s health and ensure they aren’t being coerced." Me and @Mr_Jamie_B_Hall in @WSJopinion wsj.com/opinion/restor… @EPPCdc

Ryan T. Anderson Reflects on Ethics and Public Policy Center's 50th Anniversary youtube.com/watch?v=LqVqSy…

America is facing a fertility crisis. Marriage is down. Sex is down. Births are down. Young adults are spending dramatically less time with friends. And one major overlooked driver is digital technology. THREAD 🧵🧵👇👇

Marriage rates have fallen. Birth rates have collapsed. Pornography use is soaring. Adults aren’t socializing anymore. Tech is replacing relationships. Policy makers need to act. @ClareMorellEPPC @lawrchloe eppc.org/news/tech-is-r…

At the close of our 50th anniversary gala celebration last week, I offered brief remarks on what exactly it is that EPPC stands for. You can find out by watching them here. youtube.com/watch?v=LqVqSy… @EPPCdc

The official book cover of No Contact from @noellem has now been released! More than 68 million Americans are now estranged from family. What is driving this movement?

More than 68 million Americans report estrangement from a family member. Like an immune system, our ability to detect harm is necessary. But for many now it is more like an autoimmune disorder: misdirected, indiscriminate, and turning us against what we need to sustain us.

Congrats to @EPPCdc on 50 years! Proud to call this institution my professional home.

Really want to recommend this short talk by @DouthatNYT at the @EPPCdc anniversary gala from last week. Such a clear distillation of the current state of play and the way forward for religious conservatives. youtu.be/r_tv2mbWpX8?si…

It was a great event! And Ross's comments are worth your time. Thankful for EPPC. Even for Ryan most days.

Last week, EPPC celebrated our 50th anniversary. Ross Douthat gave a wonderful address on the prospects and challenges for a future shaped by religious humanism. You can watch his remarks here: youtube.com/watch?v=r_tv2m… @EPPCdc @DouthatNYT

EPPC is needed now more than ever. Our guiding lights 50 years ago remain the same today: the Hebrew and Christian Scriptures, the natural law tradition, Western Civilization in general, and the American constitutional order in particular. ewtnnews.com/world/us/ethic…

This was a tremendous event for an indispensable organization. I'm proud that the 1st Amendment Partnership was originally a program of EPPC. EPPC's best days are ahead due in large part to the wisdom and charity of @RyanTAnd.

What is the Ethics and Public Policy Center?
