“What ails us, as a society, is the fact that we are falling
away from God,” stated former Attorney General of the United
States, William Barr, at the Center for Urban Renewal & Education’s
annual National Policy Summit this week in Washington D.C. The
3-day event brought together some of the nation’s top policy
leaders with more than 60 pastors from all over the country who are
part of CURE’s clergy network. At the summit, these faith leaders
learned about key policy issues, collaborated with fellow pastors
and were equipped to take the solutions back to their churches and
communities.
This week on CURE America with Star Parker, we highlight some
wonderful parts of the summit focused on choice in education,
getting our children out of government-run, union-controlled
schools and to those that reflect the values of their parents. We
feature AG Barr’s remarks as well as part of our panel discussion
on Educational Freedom with Michael Benjamin of American Federation
for Children, Francesca Fontenot, and former NFL great and CURE
board member Jack Brewer. Some of our pastors also share their
experiences at the summit.
Educational choice is just one of the many topics we addressed at
CURE’s National Policy Summit and we will be bringing you more in
the following weeks on issues like police reform, homelessness and
abortion. Please stay tuned for more powerful presentations.
