“Politically, conservatives have a unique opportunity to create a new policy agenda given their dominant position heading into midterms and potentially 2024.

The temptation is going to be to rail against the trillion in spending that would have been in Build Back Better, against our bleak budget outlook, or the prolonged school closures that severely compromised student outcomes, or what amounts to abortion on demand—at any time for any reason—even though most Americans support limits. There’s plenty of material there.

But conservatives need to be for things, too. Specifically, for what would really change the experience around having a baby and family in a meaningful way that would make our country a healthier place.”
