Republicans Get One More Chance to Do the Right Thing
By Dr. Thomas Patterson | The last time Republicans lived up to their reputation for sound fiscal policy was almost 30 years ago. In March 1995, Speaker Newt Gingrich and the Republican House caucus, to the jeers of skeptics, resolved to balance the federal budget...
We’re Suing to Protect Donor Privacy and Free Speech from the Unconstitutional Prop 211
By the Arizona Free Enterprise Club | In this past November’s election, Arizona voters were misled into passing Prop 211. Billed as the “Voters’ Right to Know Act” that’s supposed to “Stop Dark Money” in our state, it sounds harmless enough. But that was all a part of...
Developing Trade School Pathways for Students Is Essential
By Kurt Rohrs | Not all students in our schools are destined for college, but this does not mean that they are lesser in their social standing. Every student is different, and each one deserves the opportunity to explore alternative pathways with equal standing in...
The November Election Shows That the GOP Won the Education Debate
By the Arizona Free Enterprise Club | The public school system in Arizona is a complete mess. But during the past few years, it really hit a new low. Attempts to indoctrinate children with Critical Race Theory and radical gender theory have been spreading throughout...
The Idea That the U.S. Should Pay Climate Reparations Is Absurd
By Dr. Thomas Patterson | Last month U.N. members met once again to live the good life for a few days and push for the unlikely elimination of climate change. The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change convened COP27 in the impressive Egyptian coastal...
The Success of Props 129 and 132 Is a Positive Step for the Future of Arizona
By the Arizona Free Enterprise Club | Not every outcome of November’s frustrating and poorly run election was a disaster. While Maricopa County certainly dropped the ball, and we await the results of any lawsuits and investigations, voters passed some...
Maricopa County’s Only ‘Remarkable Effort’ Was to Disenfranchise Voters
By the Arizona Free Enterprise Club | Maricopa County dropped the ball. They botched the election, and there is simply no way for politicians to gaslight their way out of it. After years of fearmongering from the media and the left that election integrity measures...
ESG Investing Is a Nonstarter, But We Keep Getting Pushed Into It
By Dr. Thomas Patterson | The world of finance is turning bullish on ESG, an investment strategy directing funds to corporations with woke environmental, social, and governance policies. Trillions of dollars have already flowed into ESG funds, projected to hit $50...
Choices Create Stronger Schools and Kids
By Kevin Gemeroy | I was born and raised in Seattle, Washington. I went to high school, and college, and started my business there. We were the fourth generation of our family to live in West Seattle where we founded and operated local businesses. Over the last 80...

Why I Switched—To Democrat, Then Back to Republican
