Erin Hawley, Senior Counsel, Vice President of the Center for Life & Regulatory Practice, Alliance Defending Freedom

Kim Hermann, Executive Director, Southeastern Legal Foundation

Panel II

• Tiffany Justice, Co-Founder, Moms for Liberty
• Melissa Moschella, Professor, University of Notre Dame Law School
• Michael Ramey, President, Parental Rights Foundation

Hosted by

• Sarah Parshall Perry, Senior Legal Fellow, Edwin Meese III Center for Legal and Judicial Studies, The Heritage Foundation

From curriculum to school administration, gender affirming medicine to privacy, and opt-out rights to school surveys, parental rights are increasingly under attack. But what has the United States Supreme Court said about the nature of parental rights, and what do those rights include? What about statutory laws that directly impact the rights of parents of minor children—can they serve to shore up parental rights while the Supreme Court remains silent on the issue, as it has for 24 years and counting? Can a combination of litigation and legislation further strengthen the rights of parents to direct the care, upbringing, and education of their children?
Join Heritage Foundation Senior Legal Fellow Sarah Parshall Perry and two panels of experts in family law and public policy as they provide answers to these questions and more during a half-day symposium on the American family in the crosshairs.

Rob Greenway, Director, Allison Center for National Security, The Heritage Foundation

EJ Kimball, Director of Christian Engagement, Combat Antisemitism Movement

Jonathan Schanzer, Senior Vice President of Research, Foundation for Defense of Democracies

Daniel Flesch, Visiting Fellow, Allison Center for National Security, The Heritage Foundation (Moderator)

Panel II

• Fred Fleitz, Vice Chair, Center for American Security, America First Policy Institute
• Mort Klein, National President, Zionist Organization of America
• Tricia Miller, Director of CAMERA's Partnership of Christians and Jews
• Mario Bramnick, Co-Chair, National Task Force to Combat Antisemitism (Moderator) 

Since the horrific atrocities committed by Hamas against innocent Israelis, the Biden administration and the international community have waged an unprecedented, comprehensive, and escalating political war against Israel. They have attempted to criminalize Israel’s war efforts, effectively denying the Jewish state, the right to self-defense, and state sovereignty. This has fueled an unprecedented rise of antisemitism on the streets and campuses of American universities. Rather than an organic movement, the demonstrations, encampments, and riots engulfing these campuses and city streets are part of a concerted effort to sow social and political discord across the country.
Our two panels will discuss both the organizations, objectives, and strategies behind the continued rise in antisemitism as well as the importance of restoring the once historic U.S.-Israel alliance.

When the Framers wrote the Constitution, “Their intention was to write a document not just for their times but for posterity,” Meese said in a 1985 speech to the D.C. Chapter of the Federalist Society Lawyers Division. Meese reiterated the theme of Original Intention in several speeches, warning of the danger of “seeing the Constitution as an empty vessel into which each generation may pour its passion and prejudice.” The Great Debate that he launched over three decades ago placed the idea of judicial originalism at the center of American jurisprudence and fundamentally altered the constitutional landscape of this nation.
Today, originalism is no longer a novel concept; instead, it is now widely embraced in legal circles, including academia and the judiciary. Building on the work of Ed Meese, this lecture aims to continue the conversation he started and examine new trends and themes in originalist thought today. Please join us for our third annual lecture.
Professor John Yoo: In addition to his role as the Emanuel Heller Professor of Law at the University of California at Berkeley, Professor Yoo is also a Nonresident Senior Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and a Visiting Fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University.
Throughout his career, Professor Yoo served in all three branches of government. He was an official in the U.S. Department of Justice, where he worked on national security and terrorism issues after the 9/11 attacks, he served as general counsel of the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee, and he has been a law clerk for Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas and federal appeals Judge Laurence Silberman. Professor Yoo has been a visiting professor at Seoul National University in South Korea, the Interdisciplinary Center in Israel, Keio University in Japan, Trento University in Italy, the University of Chicago, and the Free University of Amsterdam.
We look forward to welcoming Professor Yoo to share his insights on the morality of originalism.

In 1992, en route to an arranged marriage to a distant cousin, Hirsi Ali escaped to the Netherlands, where she eventually became a leading member of the Dutch Parliament. She came to the United States in 2006, accepting a fellowship at the American Enterprise Institute, and became an American citizen in 2013. Her dramatic life story and the evolution of her political thinking are related in her best-selling books Infidel (2006), Nomad (2010), Heretic (2015), and Prey (2021). She is a prolific essayist, and her recent “Why I Am Now a Christian” (UnHerd, Nov. 11, 2023) has attracted worldwide attention. Presently, Hirsi Ali is a research fellow at the Hoover Institution and founder of the AHA Foundation.
The namesake of the lecture, famed scholar Russell Kirk (1918–1994), established the philosophical foundations of the modern conservative movement with his landmark books The Conservative Mind (1953) and The Roots of American Order (1974). He was instrumental in the founding of National Review and Modern Age and was for many years a distinguished fellow of The Heritage Foundation.
Kirk’s political philosophy, summarized in his “six cannons of conservatism,” emphasized tradition and convention, transcendence and piety, political prudence, and ordered liberty. His application of those canons to contemporary issues, in a steady stream of essays, lectures, and newspaper columns, was always noteworthy and often provocative and controversial. Today, his works and legacy are being preserved and advanced by The Russell Kirk Center for Cultural Renewal.
The Russell Kirk Lecture Series recognizes eminent thinkers in the tradition of “the father of American conservatism.” Previous lecturers are Bishop Robert Barron, Robert George, Roger Scruton, Shelby Steele, George Nash, Robert Reilly, David Goldman, Roger Kimball, and Gary Saul Morson.

The successful campaign to oust the presidents of Harvard University and the University of Pennsylvania has made clear that a window of opportunity has opened in the struggle against DEI and CRT. This window opened when Americans, especially those in the center, watched in horror as students – indoctrinated into a narrative of oppressor vs. oppressed – threw their support behind the Hamas terrorists who committed atrocities in Israel on October 7. We must keep this window open.
Join us to hear from experts in national defense, medicine, and education, along with journalists uncovering DEI and CRT’s capture of a wide range of institutions. From medical schools to the military and law schools to corporations, see how this pernicious ideology has made its way into every facet of American institutions and what can be done to reverse course.
This half-day event will begin with a fireside chat between Congressman Burgess Owens and Heritage Vice President Eric Teetsel.

The infusion of gender ideology into foreign policy and international affairs is both inappropriate and dangerous, promoting notions antagonistic to traditional concepts of marriage, family, and sex, threatening to erode hard-won civil liberties and national sovereignty, and threatening mental and physical harm to children and young adults. No responsible government should advocate for these policies.
Join us as panels of experts from Europe and the Western Hemisphere discuss the destructive impact of these government initiatives and the need for an international coalition to combat gender ideology.

Through a conceptual framework based on the government’s intertemporal budget constraint, we can see that the inflation surge is a way to “pay for” part of added government spending by depreciating the real value of public debt. In this framework, more spending triggers more inflation, but higher initial debt and longer debt duration mean lower inflation. This can explain recent inflation rates in 21 economies (20 non-European countries and the Euro area considered as an aggregate). The U.S. is not an outlier, with inflation and the spending surge both moderately above average.
The bottom line? Recent inflation surges were triggered by the surges in government spending – i.e., expanded government caused inflation. Learn more about how big government makes your everyday expenses more costly as Dr. Barro joins Heritage Executive Vice President Derrick Morgan.

Yun, as he sits down with Heritage’s Jeff M. Smith to discuss the importance of the COFA agreements and countering Chinese influence in the Pacific Islands.
For nearly forty years, the United States has enjoyed exclusive security agreements with three Pacific Island nations, collectively known as the Freely Associated States.

Among the advances, NASA-funded innovations in small satellite propulsion and navigation have opened the aperture of possibilities for offensive counterspace operations and the commercial sector now offers the service an all-but-on-demand launch capability.
However, there is still work to be done. The Space Force must develop operational and tactical doctrine for counterspace operations. It must increase space situational awareness, and operational resilience by growing its portfolio of satellites in all orbits. And Congress must grant the authorities required to consolidate all appropriate Defense Department space organizations, personnel, and systems into the USSF as rapidly as possible.

This year saw the first ‘very strong’ score awarded to the Army for its readiness levels, with 78% of its brigades assessed as ready. The Navy has made some improvements in readiness as well, but its current fleet of 290 ships is well below the recommended 400. Similarly, the Air Force’s readiness has improved, but a lack of pilots and flying time has hindered its ability to project the kind of air power necessary for great power competition. And lastly, the Marine Corps has risen from ‘weak’ to ‘marginal’ in this year’s edition. This unique report assesses the strength of each of the U.S. military services, the status of the threats we face, and the favorability of the environment in which the U.S. and its allies must be prepared to operate. Since the initial publication of the Index, the military has struggled in building its size and capability for operations—brought about by harmful budget caps, underinvestment in research and development, and decades of sustained engagement in the Middle East. Join us for the debut of the 2020 Index of U.S. Military Strength. Senator Joni Ernst, a key member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, will provide keynote remarks. Dakota Wood, Senior Fellow for defense programs will provide a special presentation on the important findings of this edition of the Index, along with a panel discussion from noted national security experts who will discuss where we stand, and what we need to protect our national interests in a world where U.S. military superiority is not assured.

China seeks to use its expanding influence within the U.N., not because it supports the founding principles of the U.N., but in order to shift the values, programs, and policies of the U.N. in ways that benefit Chinese priorities and ideology. This shift would harm U.S. interests and undermine the system of values and practices established in the postwar era. The U.S. cannot reverse this trend entirely, but it must take strategic steps to ensure that Chinese influence is reasonably contained and its leadership is restricted and channeled in the U.N. and other international organizations in ways that do not directly undermine U.S. interests.
