How The Heritage Foundation Celebrated Its 50th Anniversary | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

Democrat Senator Dick Durbin of Illinois blocked Senator Mike Lee's resolution honoring the 50th anniversary of the Heritage Foundation. Senator Durbin said his objection was due to committee rules and not based off of the organization. The Conservative Think Tank in Washington DC is celebrating its golden anniversary with a 2 day summit. Leaders from throughout the country were in attendance. Doctor Kevin Roberts, President of the Heritage Foundation, kicked off the event celebrating the organization's 50th year. Jessica Anderson is one of the thousands gathered to celebrate the important milestone. She along with other conservative leaders and participants aim to bring awareness to preserving traditional family values and to fight against an increasingly woke culture. Also, an important topic was the issue of life and defending the unborn. Roger Severino, the Vice President of Domestic Policy at the Heritage Foundation, says the battle continues at the Supreme Court where a decision is expected on the chemical abortion drug, mifepristone, used in more than half of all US abortions. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
