Pastor Brunson Is Free!
With a hurricane battering the coast and a bitter political battle raging everywhere else, Americans could use some good news. This morning, they got it. While the world watched, U.S. Pastor Andrew Brunson, after two long and harrowing years in Turkish prison, was boarding a plane home. Freed, at last. For the Brunsons, whose excruciating journey began back in 2016 when Andrew was falsely accused of terrorism, it was an emotional verdict. At his trial this morning, he broke down in tears when the millions of prayers offered on his behalf had finally been answered. With his wife Norine in the courtroom, the North Carolina father wept when the decision was announced. "I am an innocent man," he had pleaded during the hours and hours of proceedings. "I love Jesus, I love Turkey." FRC's ... (more)

California's Campus Abortion Mandate is Bad Model Legislation

by Patrina Mosley

The California bill SB 320 would have required the state's 34 public universities with on-campus student health centers to make abortion pills available on campus to more than 400,000 female students by January 1, 2022. SB 320 passed both chambers and was recently vetoed by the Governor. This is significant due to the fact that this bill would have become the first of its kind in the country and would have served as a model for other states to turn their student health centers into abortion clinics.

by Travis Weber

Travis Weber is Vice President for Policy at Family Research Council. This article appeared in The Federalist on October 3, 2018. For the sake of our political system, we must re-embrace the balance of power the Constitution originally envisioned. If there is anything our country has learned from the hype, drama, and antics surrounding Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearing, it is that the Supreme Court is far too important in our nation’s political system. The high price we pay for politicizing the confirmation ... (more)
