| 0:00.0 | Hi guys, welcome back. I'm Liz Wheeler. I have a preview for you of an interview. I sat down |
| 0:06.0 | when I was at Natcon, I sat down with the president of the Heritage Foundation, Kevin Roberts, |
| 0:10.6 | which was funny because I actually recently met his daughter. I spoke at the University of Dallas |
| 0:15.6 | in Texas and the event was partially hosted by his daughter. So it was a funny coincidence that |
| 0:19.5 | I had met her a month or two ago and then I sat down and talked with her dad. He's doing great work |
| 0:23.9 | at the Heritage Foundation by the way. And we talked about a couple of initiatives that they're |
| 0:29.0 | undertaking at Heritage, including what's called the Education Freedom Report Card. What this is, |
| 0:34.3 | is it's a ranking system or metrics where you can gauge how free your state is when it comes to |
| 0:42.0 | school choice or educational freedom issues. And once you see where your state ranks compared |
| 0:46.4 | to other states, then there are action items, things that you can do to get involved in increasing |
| 0:50.8 | the freedom of education in your state. So really cool. It's a really cool tool, very nerdy, very |
| 0:54.9 | cool. And I made a little bit of fun of him, but really it's pretty neat. I think you'll like hearing |
| 0:59.0 | about it. We also talked about the fiscal blueprint that Heritage Foundation has released. This is |
| 1:04.1 | to counter the Democrats' accusation that, oh, Republicans are the party of no. Well, Heritage |
| 1:09.6 | came up with a plan of what Republicans ought to do when they take back Congress in November. |
| 1:14.4 | And then perhaps most importantly of all, we talked about Schumer's gay marriage bill that is |
| 1:19.4 | currently, well, it's currently stagnating in the Senate. They aren't going to vote on this bill |
| 1:24.7 | until after the midterms, perhaps thanks to the efforts of the Heritage Foundation and what all |
| 1:28.9 | you guys have done talking to your senators. But Kevin Roberts and I, Dr. Roberts and I talked about |
| 1:35.0 | how this bill in reality isn't about gay marriage. It actually targets us as people of faith. So |
| 1:40.2 | if you want exclusive early access to interviews just like this one, please join us on the Liz Wheeler |
| 1:45.4 | Show community on locals. That's Liz WheelerShow.com slash locals. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy |
